When I was a kid, growing up in New York, I was smitten by snakes, the same way most kids are smitten by tops, marbles, cars, trains, cricket balls.
Kad sam bio dijete, odrastajući u New Yorku, zmije su me oduševile na isti način kao što većinu klinaca privuku zvrkovi, špekule, auti, vlakovi, loptice.
