Most notable of all,there were no people and that's just the way John Williams wants to keep his part of the world—without people.But there is a paradox in his story.John is an educated man.He has books and nobody knows how he got them.Mostly he reads about his world,the forest,the animals,the plants,and the mountains.He has seen airplanes flying overhead but does not want to know about them.For him,electricity is lightning,not light
bulbs,refrigerators,televisions,or
washing machines.John Williams is 85 years old and had not had a sick day in his life. He attributes his long life to the fact that it has nothing to do with people and in order that he might enjoy many more years of health,happiness,and solitude,I will not tell you where his kingdom lies.There is no room there for you or me.
