Quotes by David King Dunaway (?)

“While the choice of such a genre may seem like a radical departure for Anaya, in many ways Zia Summer, and the following books in the Sonny Baca series, Rio Grande Fall (1996) and Shaman Winter (1999), are concerned with many of the same issues Anaya tackles in previous works. Detective Sonny Baca, who appears briefly in Alburquerque, solves his first crime in Zia Summer, and his professional development is closely tied to personal revelations about his culture, history, and family. The fictional Sonny’s great-great grandfather is real-life New Mexican hero, Elfego Baca. A Robin Hood figure who was the sheriff of Socorro”

“think human beings have made a nightmare out of their collective history. Seems to me that the last 5,000 years have been pretty awful-cruelty, slavery, torture, religious fanaticism, ideological fanaticism, the old serfdom of agriculture and the new serfdom of industrialism. I think humankind probably made a big mistake when we gave up the hunting and gathering way of life for agriculture. Somebody said that the plough may have done more damage to human life on the planet than the sword. I’d be inclined to agree. I look forward to a time when the industrial system collapses and we all go back to chasing wild cattle and buffalo on horseback.”
