And for the next five years, the Fallowses flew from town to town (he’s a private pilot) to experience those stories for themselves. It all started in 2011 with a column for The Atlantic asking readers to share stories about their hometowns. But that’s exactly what authors James and Deborah Fallows did with their bestseller Our Towns: A 100,000-Mile Journey into the Heart of America. It’s harder - much harder - to slow down and think and take a look from a higher level while also seeing what things are truly like from the ground. It’s extremely easy to get upset these days. The documentary follows up on the successful book and lectures by James and Deborah Fallows From the What to Watch website: The insightful Our Towns premieres April 13 on HBO and HBO Max
