Author's Note

I wrote this when I was 18 years old (has it really been that long ago?) so it's very dated. The original is in longhand in a little notebook about the size of a thin paperback. It's not the first long story I completed, but it's the one I still have a copy of.

At first I thought I'd revise it to suit the present, but on second thought I'd rather keep it as it is, since it's full of references to what things were like at the time it was written.

I'd appreciate it if people point out typos, grammar mistakes, and continuity flaws; I had someone else type this for me from my notebook and there may be mistakes I haven't noticed.

I never thought it would be In Memoriam. :(
