Day five of our daily readings from “Dear Los Angeles,” a collection of letters and diary entries from 1542 to 2018, while all of us quarantine in 2020.
Today’s excerpt from 1942 comes from Bertolt Brecht, German author and playwright most famous for Galileo and Mother Courage. He fled Europe for Santa Monica, only to flee back to Europe after WWII during the McCarthy era.
We love you, Los Angeles!
