Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Ashes of Incense: A Novel A very tiny person, atop a very tall ladder, by help of which two mites of hands could just reach the highest shelf in the preserve closet; out of a marvellous fluff of pale gold hair, two angelic eyes that gaze - or are they blue after all? Perhaps the pinafore lends - at any rate, what matter? Blue or not, the round upturned eyes are full of that divine emptiness we call innocence; breathe, too, the repose of undisturbed deliberation, as they rest contemplatively on the long row of brown jars, stretched in sedate invitation along the highest shelf. The tiny person sighs: there are a great many of them. Then, resolutely, out of the pinafore pocket she draws a spoon, and a quaint old rusty knife; takes down each fat brown jar and pries the top off, then sighs again - as the two dozen cylinders of sweeties lie before her, opened - waiting.
