What begins as a Utopian vision, always - always - ends in bloodshed. Because you have to force a utopia on a free people.

The tradition I was born into was essentially nomadic, a herdsmen tradition, following animals across the earth. The bookshops are a form of ranching instead of herding cattle, I herd books. Writing is a form of herding, too I herd words into little paragraph-like clusters.
