Behind the Caves

“Behind the Caves” is up at The Rumpus

18 September 201411 March 2015 / Randon Billings Noble / 1 Comment

My essay “Behind the Caves” is up at The Rumpus.

BEST MIX #1

It’s about high school, my 20th high school reunion, Facebook, the Coolest of the Cool, the Nerd Elite, fumbled lines, missed points, and the ways in which we try — and often fail — to “only connect.”  You can read it here.  Thanks!
