I finished reading A Tale of Two Valleys: Wine, Wealth and the Battle for the Good Life in Napa and Sonoma. I found myself laughing out loud at Deutschman's descriptions of the quirky locals he meets in Sonoma (including roosters and their advocates) and the book is tempting me to infiltrate the Tuesday Farmer's Market over summer vacation! A paragraph I recently enjoyed from this book: "If you saw an overweight thirty-five-year-old man steer his car into the empty parking lot of a neighborhood bar before ten in the morning and sit there alone, waiting impatiently for the doors to open so he could be the first customer and quickly finish a couple of drinks and then spend the rest of the late spring day [...] slogging off to a series of other nearby bars, you might think that the solitary man was a potential alcoholic and view him with a mixture of sympathy and scorn. But if you didn't call the places "bar" and instead referred to them as the "tasting rooms" or "visitor centers" of well-reputed wineries[...] you would probably view the drinker with admiration and envy as an enthusiast, a connoisseur..." This book goes into the politics of Sonoma Valley and how it may or may not survive in the future...
