Fallaci at BU


"The secret of happiness is freedom, the secret of freedom is courage."  -- Oriana Fallaci


I'm taking an evening class at BU this semester, and I was elated to find a display of some of Fallaci's notebooks along with some photographs on the main floor of the Mugar Memorial Library. The display is part of  the exhibit titled A View from the Vault: Exhibitions from the Howard Gotlieb Archival Research Center. It's worth visiting if you are in the area. Along with Fallaci's notebooks, you can see a pair of Fred Astaire's dancing shoes, and other personal memorabilia from other well-known figures like Cab Calloway, Bette Davis, and W. Somerset Maugham.
