"This
then is where I am, and as I settle to work I find I have to resolve,
step by slow step, experiences and questions that once moved like light.
The life of country and city is moving and present ... through a
network of relationships and decisions.
A dog is barking – that chained bark – behind the asbestos barn. It is now and then: here and many places. When there are questions to put, I have to push back my chair, look down at my papers, and feel the change."
—Raymond Williams, "The Country and the City" (1973) p8.
