Can I join?
:15:17
That's five shillings annual membership fee.
:15:23
I read about your mother.
It must have been awful.

:15:28
She was a stranger to me, really.
:15:34
-But how have you been?
-Practicing my billiards.

:15:39
I wanted to see you,
to tell you that I'm leaving England.

:15:43
Why?
:15:44
The wanderlust has got me. I want to travel.
:15:48
Where will you go?
:15:49
I loved the Arabian Nights
when I was younger.

:15:52
Maybe I'll start there.
:15:55
Would you like a traveling companion?
:15:59
You have to finish your degree.
:16:05
-Does Julian know?
-I'll leave him a nice letter.

:16:10
You're the one friend from this chapter

:16:21
And so began
our one-sided correspondence.

:16:24
For she was never in one place long enough
for my letters to catch up with her.

:16:30
After a year, she stopped writing.
:16:34
By the time I graduated and began teaching
in the East End of London...

:16:38
I'd managed to finally put her behind me.
:16:42
Civil war had broken out in Spain...
:16:44
and I was campaigning
for the Republican side...

:16:47
in its increasingly desperate fight
against the Fascists.

:16:52
Tiberius is in a bad mood!
Where are those slaves?
