Der riesige dunkle Wüstenkoloss von Phoenix lag gen Osten hinter dem Fensterglas – fahrende Autos, Flugzeuge, die zu lichtmarkierten Landebahnen hinabsanken, blau blinkende Polizeiblinklichter, große ummauerte Viertel, die einzelne Flicken der Nacht mit ihrer Anti-Einbruchs-Beleuchtung kürbisorange sprenkelten. Es war exotisch. Es war der Westen.
The vast and darkened desert colossus of Phoenix lay to the east beyond the window glass—cars moving, planes descending to outlined runways, blue police flashers flashing, wide, walled neighborhoods tainting patches of the night pumpkin orange with their crime lights. It was exotic. It was the west.
