Sunday Papers: Ernest Hemingway


"A continent ages quickly once we come. The natives live in harmony with it. But the foreigner destroys, cuts down the trees, drains the water, so that the water supply is altered, and in a short time the soil, once the sod is turned under, is cropped out and, next, it starts to blow away as it has blown away in every old country. [...] The earth gets tired of being exploited."


On the turntable:  Miles Davis, "Live in New York"
