The first time I went to this place

Absolutely taken aback. Beautiful city- so much to do, so much art to appreciate- and displayed so thoroughly through the outset of the entire city! Great place!

Lived there for 3 years

Don’t go in the winter because it is extremely cold and the wind will literally kill you. Fall is a nice time to visit. I attended graduate school at the University of Iowa. Although I was not very fond of the program I was in, I enjoyed Iowa City because it was almost like being in a New England small town but it was in the heart land.

Only place worth visiting in Iowa

I left Iowa years ago and I kind of miss Iowa City. It’s the only place in Iowa where you can find a little culture, diversity, and a few good restaurants.

it was nice

My exboyfriend goes to Univ. of Iowa and I stayed in this lovely inn that had airplane themes. I was in the Amelia Earhart Suite and it was nice and quaint. Great college town.

Tiny SF bookstore; perfect quote

Visited a friend at U of Iowa on my big trip from Massachusetts to California in ‘91 and he took me to this tiny SF bookstore upstairs in some building that seemed to be falling apart. Picked up a copy of Semiotext(e) SF, which had this perfect quote in the foreword:

“The last time I was in the States, I saw a young guy in Des Moines, Iowa (for Jesus sake, Iowa!) wearing a T-shirt that said:
‘Reality is a crutch for people who can’t deal with science fiction.’
At that moment, I realized that the Revolution was over and my side has won.”
—Robert Anton Wilson
