12. Roads – an escape route! Between the passions of cities and pale towns lie unrequited distances empty stretches of unnamed landscape curving and lifting in a sleep of light where the soul travels far out into wide fields and wilderness James Griffin Idyllic! The road ends here. Away from it all. A little piece of wilderness in a crowded country. A chance for a “must-have” holiday, to restore one’s energies for a return to the fray of a western lifestyle.

13. Roads – a lifeline! I want to be by the roadside – I’ll wait days if I have to. Disaster has struck this region and the UN convoy is bringing relief supplies to us. The best chance of survival is to be along the roadside. People are lucky if their homes are here. My cousins live 23 miles from here – we don’t know if they have heard that help is arriving, but they may be too weak to come anyway.
