Rain over Howth, a rented house with the plumbing coming down through the ceiling, no coal for the fire, and Sebastian Dangerfield gone out the back before the landlord reaches the door. He is meant to be reading law at Trinity on the GI Bill.

Dear Mr Skully, I have caught my neck in a mangle and will be indisposed for eternity. Yours in death S.D.
The Ginger Man, J.P. Donleavy
