All Europe sweltered
A possible jump in time of the action. I can't find year-by-year weather records going back to the 1910s, though. --Volver 12:52, 29 January 2007 (PST)
Page 1019
the well-known Tour d'Argent in Paris
Wikipedia says the establishment is over 400 years old.
Balthazar
Wine bottle with a capacity of 16 liters.
Not long before, Pugnax had convinced her to come aboard
So the action here is set before Kseniya's encounter with Ljubica?

sympiezometer
Form of barometer invented in 1818, says the 1911 Britannica.
first Inconvenience after the little-known Battle of Desconocido
Another allusion to naval customs, an item claimed from a ship and carried aboard her namesake. Desconocido is Spanish: unknown.

Pythagorean or Counter-Earth . . . Antichthon . . . the Sun is always between us
Fictional device also used in Nabokov's Ada (though not in such a powerful way). People from one Earth can visit the other, speak the language, recognize the topography, but see differences in history and customs.
The Counter-Earth resolves the problem of Sirius rising in the summer (annotations to page 901). When one Earth is at January in its orbit, the other is at July. --Volver 13:15, 29 January 2007 (PST)
X-ray Spex
