How Can We Sing King Alpha's Song In A Strange Land



Guns have metamorphosed into cameras in this earnest comedy, the ecology safari, because Nature has ceased to be what it always had been, what people needed protection from. Now Nature endangered, tamed, mortal needs to be protected from people.
--Susan Sontag

--William De Kooning
