Arianna Dagnino
The ‘Buffaloes’ were becoming a legend. The Colonel had forged them into a superb fighting machine […] Enough for a young hothead like me to want to be one of them [...] Sam pauses and looks for a moment into the sparkling fire. The scar on his jaw glistens against the dark skin like broken glass [...] You slowly fall prey to a sick frenzy. You develop a lust for blood. You even begin to enjoy killing.
Arianna Dagnino, The Afrikaner

After dark I walk beside the plateau back towards the Okakarara Road (...) the full moon tonight is huge, an incredible globe of cool molten yellow, almost close enough to touch, shining over the open bushland like a giant floodlight.
Fran Sandham, Traversa
