David Guterson Quotes

They Were Taken From Anacortes On A Train To A Transit Camp - The Horse Stables At The Puyallup Fairgrounds. They Lived In The Horse Stalls And Slept On Canvas Army Cots; At Nine P.m. They Were Confined To Their Stalls; At Ten P.m. They Were Made To Turn Out Their Lights, One Bare Bulb For Each Family. The Cold In The Stalls Worked Into Their Bones, And When It Rained That Night They Moved Their Cots Because Of The Leaks In The Roof. The Next Morning, At Six A.M., They Slogged Through Mud To The Transit Camp Mess Hall And Ate Canned Figs And White Bread From Pie Tins And Drank Coffee Out Of Tin Cups.
