Description:“As he paced the forward deck of this little island ferry that was more like a miniature seagoing ship than the Jersey Central ferries he had known all his life, Noah Sibley realized that people were staring at him. But he was too agitated to sit still, torn by too many conflicting feelings. Disregarding the stares, he walked with determination, a bit man in white trousers and a gray coat, six feet and a hundred and ninety pounds of energetic and slightly awkward bone and flesh. He swung his soft Panama by the brim in his hand as he walked, and the wind danced through the blond fuzz on top of his head and whipped the billowy white trousers around his legs. Frowning into the wind through his glasses, he wondered again and again why he had come. Better, he would think for a moment, to have let the sleeping dog that had slept for fifteen years lie. But then he would remind himself that too often in his thirty-eight years he had, wittingly or unwittingly, avoided experience, and this would be an experience. It could be an excruciatingly embarrassing one. It could be a tremendous disillusionment too. Perhaps it was better to hold on to what illusions you had. It could even be a fairly jolly weekend, a weekend of laughing, weren’t we young in those days reminiscences. It could be. If only he had a little more confidence in his own ability to carry it off, to act the part that the script of his own imaginings called for.” inkFrog Analytics
