Summary
If you have ever been on an extended sea voyage on a small boat, then you may be familiar with the feeling of wishing you were back upon land, surrounded by the company of all your closest friends and associates, where there is plenty of fodder for conversation -- a phrase which here means “things to talk about other than saltwater, the weather, the narrow dimensions of the boat, or which fins a shark might wear shoes on, if it wore them” -- where the food is freshly prepared and where, so far as you are able to tell, the floor remains mostly where you left it.
The Calumnious Coda, presented here with a preceding letter by the author.
