“The only phenomenon with which writing has always been concomitant is the creation of cities and empires, that is the integration of large numbers of individuals into a political system, and their grading into castes or classes....

—Rainer Maria Rilke (1875–1926)
“In the towns I am tracked by phantoms having weird detective ways—”
—Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)
