I Wonder What It Means When Americans

Helen Mirren

I wonder what it means when americans say i'm an american. in britain the culture is basically the same from one end of the country to the other. and when i came here and i saw americans who live, i don't know, in you know, northwestern california as opposed to americans who live in louisiana, as opposed to americans who live in the nevada desert. english even is literally a picture that i have in my mind of an oak tree in the field, a single oak in a green field. and also when i think of my russian roots, it's the landscape that i connect with as more than maybe the poetry or the drama.
