It was as if part of the journal had been been torn out.
Colleen
It's written this way intentionally.
Michael Chapman
It is definitely not a fault of your edition.
Kathy
No, but it's a fault of Mitchell's construction. If he had finished that sentence, I would not have gone looking for the rest of it and then immediately spotted how the book was structured and proceeded to read the second half of Eming's journal before I went on to do the same thing with Frobisher's letters and all the rest, finishing when I got to the middle of the book. Dumb of Mitchell to give the game away so early on, wasn't it?

Huh? In my edition, the last words of the first section (also an unfinished sentence) are „when I first met Rafael“. Are there differences between editions?
