>Mario Taboada
You don't have to look any further than the first sentence of
_The Postman
Always Rings Twice_ to see an example.
"They threw me off the hay truck about noon."
We are already in the middle of the action, and have an good
idea about
the protagonist and the location in those nine plain
words.
