“ 'The Sundial' is written with the kind of humor that would make a guillotine laugh. ”
The success of any society must be judged by the life of its worst off. No other calculation will do.
~ Victor Lavalle
Before September 11, the skinny, jittery black guy made security think one thing: drug mule. But after the attacks, security only cared about bombs.
