...there are no deer hunters in Bean's, there are no fox trappers either, unless they are in disguise. The price of fox and muskrat will be down this year, but raccoon will be good, about $20 for a top skin. Trapping is occupation and sport in Maine, and last year 22,089 raccoon were taken.

A flock of wild turkeys has moved in, as well as a pack of coyotes and some deer. "It's amazing," says the former mayor, "all these yellow flowers! They were never here before."

His Hobbesian sense of the world, the battle of all against all, extends from the swamps of Louisiana (populated by a tangled bestiary of paranoid deer, coons, foxes, bright-eyed, indifferent herons and fish-chomping alligators, glaring at one another like bikers on Methedrine) to the boardrooms of the Sunbelt. Thanks to a Baptist background, he also has a taste for the religious grotesque, which gets full play in Tintorettoesque machines like The Little Prince Prohibited...
