“Rachel informs me I’ve had my brains washed by a communist plot. She’s exactly right. I’ve been won to the side of school teachers and nurses, and lost all allegiance to plastic explosives. No homeland I can claim as mine would blow up a struggling, distant country’s hydroelectric dams and water pipes, inventing darkness and dysentery in the service of its ideals, and bury mines in every Angolan road that connected food to a hungry child.”
