$18.00
"I was the Englishman overcome with enthusiasm for a barbarous place... I walked a little way, barefooted, and then lay down in nakedness on loamy earth and began to scoop it up and inhale it.

I cried out in a kind of response, a young man, I now see, chaste, unworldly and purposeful, howling in the silver darkness."
