Farewell

To the United States of America.

Chris Hedges:



And his heartbreaking, enraged, and very necessary book.

Detour Ahead

With all years, we lose. Few years have taken so much from us as did 1963: John F. Kennedy, Aldous Huxley, and C.S. Lewis on the same day; Robert Frost and Yasujiro Ozu, Dinah Washington, Patsy Cline and Edith Piaf, Medgar Evers, W.E.B. DuBois, Elmore James, Jean Cocteau, Clifford Odets, Pope John XXIII, Herbie Nichols.

And Sonny Clark, at the age of 31.

Dawn of the Dead

The Saker knows.
