Due to space restric- tions, I decided to draw attention to one story that fits into each category of the type of love depicted in "What They Found Love on 145th Street." First, we will look at the concept of family love, which is found in the following stories: "Mama," "Jump At the Sun," "The Man Thing" and "The Fashion Show, Grand Opening and Bar-B-Que Memorial Service," the first story in the collection.

But, thankfully, the fair doesn't pretend to be anything it isn't.

School: Layla works with the children on peace and being peaceful inside
Clearly, Layla is not her school; her school is not Layla. Somewhere, a line divides the two. But finding it probably is impossible amid the books and blocks and crayons and cooking -- and yes, the peace and love -- at her home on Frasca Road.
