Columbian Summer (Sunset, Tuesday, 12 October 2010)
I’ve been thinking about the sunrise, actually, on the 12th of October, 1492, at Samana Cay, now thought to be the first place Columbus landed. What a bittersweet moment, the last sunrise of pre-European America. I’m not wild about the concept of ‘Columbian’ anything, but ... here we are.
