from the article:

Beowulf’s Dream

It is vain ambition, that of the hunter who, tired of lions and second-hand beasts, looks to turn his room into a medieval bestiary.

He gathers books from a jungle sunken in shadow, hangs on the walls the head of a Danish dragon, the wings of a nocturnal angel.

And on the bare wall, awaiting his final trophy, he places the mirror.
