There are flying monkeys in Minidoka. This Adam is now a winged monkey who had worked up to the seventh cube and had earned his angel wings. He acts as a Virgil-guide in this Hell for animal abusers, who are punished by the very animals they were cruel to while on Earth. Til every snarling skull, with moans, And ghastly groans, each sin atones. Fish catch the humans who caught them on Earth and tear the hooks from their cheeks.
Hunters are the hunted.
Dogs kick half-starved men who return to lick the paw that bruised them. Maybe we aren't so far from Caspak and the Wieroos after all. The amazing thing about Minidoka is the fact that it is kind of an Ur-text or a primitive template from which all of his subsequent stories are drawn. It might just be a line here or a line there, but it all sounds strangely familiar. No part of this web site may be reproduced without permission from the respective owners.
