- Abstract
- en_US This engaging conversation pairs a frustrated Galapagos tortoise with an iguana. The tortoise is frustrated because he cannot scratch his back. He envies the iguana, who has a finch there to pick his loose skin away. The iguana mentions the tortoise's great gifts of having his house with him and being able to retreat into it whenever he is attacked. The tortoise complains that for the first three years of his life, which he spends in forming his shell, he can be the prey of rats and even ants. The iguana sneezes on the tortoise and then apologizes. He explains that he needs to clean the salt out of his nose. The tortoise continues to envy the iguana, this time over his ability to take a bath every day. The iguana notes that he is always smiling while the tortoise always looks sad. This is a dialogue in which one partner does not assuage or convince the other.
