Sindbad, The Thirteenth Voyage

by R. A. Lafferty

  Oh, it is fulfilling to be widely appreciated, even if for the wrong things. Well dammit, I bet this is the funniest comedy ever, and I bet that I'm in the funniest situation ever, though there's a good chance I'll die in it. Thanks, guys, thanks!

  This is the end of the writing of the journal. Now comes the final action by which I will either live or die. I lay the journal here, and I break my pen. The name of the Journal is:

  Sindbad, The Thirteenth Voyage.

  And it has a subtitle:

  A Manuscript Found in a Bottle.
