Experiential narrative

Autobiographical story told as a warning not to treat the technique lightly: in the depth of a New York winter Neville, wanting only warmth, slept one night as though under the palm trees of the Indies; distressing news followed, and in wartime, with ships being sunk, he sailed 48 hours later, the only way to Barbados, and arrived in time to say goodbye to his mother. 'Do not say I will experiment and put myself in Labrador.'

I slept that night as though I slept under palm trees
I arrived just in time to see my mother and say a three-dimensional “Good-bye” to her
do not treat it lightly
I will experiment and put myself in Labrador, just to see if it will work
