Notes

  • Epigraph: This is the tale that Frozen Joe told, inert upon a deck-chair in the shade. He told it because the sea was blue enamel between the palms; because the sun was a ball of brass, and the sky a puddle of lead; because we said: 'If you must talk, Joe, tell us a tale of something cold...snow and ice and Esquimaux...anything. Only don't sit there hiccoughing that it was hotter at Saki-serua in'27!
