Dear Mr. EVELYN FARRAGIL, ESQ
In reply to your letter I must advise you, in the first place, against
any
further attempts to apply your subordinates to the futile task of
deciphering my postal code.
Your belated but most bellino missive reached me in fragmentary form,
delivered at my door as it was by the kind favors of a tanned blue-eyed
ferris-wheel attendant, who found it glued onto its revolving parts at
an
amusement park. There was nothing below your note about something below.
Perhaps the rest of your document is still fulfilling its circular
destiny
while the black rock of seven deaths gradually proceeds its rounds.
Rest assured that I will continue laboring until our late lamented
poet's
"chef d'oeuvre" is fully achieved. No further explanations are
required.
Yours,
Charles Kinbote
