9/11 perception
I am in a state of utter confusion as well as pain from the way Reed Johnson quoted me (“War in All Its Awful Beauty,” April 20).
Not only am I adamantly against Karlheinz Stockhausen’s hideous perception about the attack on the twin towers on 9/11, which occurred about half a mile from my home and which I witnessed, but I also have friends who were murdered there. To insinuate that I have reduced my friends’ lives and deaths to artistic or formal expressions is irresponsible journalism that further inflicts violence on the memory of my friends and the rest of those who died on that day.
