"Eden is a conversation. It is the conversation of the human with the Divine. And it is the reverberations of that conversation that create a sense of place. It is not a thing, Eden, but a pattern of relationships, made visible in conversation. To live in Eden is to live in the midst of good relations, of just relations scrupulously attended to, imaginatively maintained through time. Altogether we call this beauty."

-- Barry Lopez

Perhaps it was these desperate, bitter men in the West Stand at Arsenal who taught me how to get angry in this way; and perhaps it is why I earn some of my living as a critic â€“ maybe itâ€™s those voices I can hear when I write. â€˜Youâ€™re a WANKER, X.â€™ â€˜The Booker Prize? THE BOOKER PRIZE? They should give that to me for having to read you.”
