Literary Los Angeles: Los Angeles Alleys

It’s been far too long since I wrote a post for Literary Los Angeles, but now I am in the process of writing several very long ones at once, including a whole series on Los Angeles history and how it’s documented and distorted in film and literature.  Not to mention a personal post on what it feels like to buy my first home in Los Angeles, something I’ll be doing this month.

But while I gather up research for these upcoming posts, I did want to quickly draw your attention to this site, Los Angeles Alleys.

I love blogs that take a very narrow subject and then address it well and thoroughly, and Los Angeles Alleys is unique in its elegant treatment of what seems at first like a very dull topic.  I think my favorite so far is this one, in East Hollywood.
