No Star Nights

 

No Star Nights
Anna Egan Smucker
paintings by Steve Johnson 1989

I had an older friend who grew up in Pittsburgh and described the cloud that hung over the city from all the steel mills.  This book lyrically describes growing up in a town and landscape dominated by the steel factory.  I can't imagine living in a place where I could never see the stars and the sky was always full of smoke.
