Excerpt from The Southern Temper
Here the night streets of Lafcadio Hearn in anguish. Hearn writing of the Creole, the black turning to brown and turning to golden, and thinking of a golden race in the Orient. Hearn dreaming in America of Japan and China. Saying in every line he ever wrote, Time is a concept dreamed up by a mad fool who never knew what life was. Race is a creed for fools. Hearn dream ing of Japan and China, dreaming of a golden race to come.
