Abstract

THE JOKING HAS GIVEN OUT. We have been waiting ten hours for this truck to show up, and now, the diesel's idle rattling and the driver's scuffling ?he is fighting with a padlock and bad light?provide little re lief. With all his weight, which is about the same as mine, not much, the driver jars up and back on the steel latch of the trailer's back doors. He will not be much help I am thinking. No one says a word. A frost seal pops. The rubber lips of the doors rip apart. The ice fog pours out, and frozen solid fish with big, black, glazed eyes count themselves out of a split box. They plumb as far as the dirt at our feet.
