Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Woman Hater, Vol. 1 of 2 The "Golden Star," Homburg, was a humble hotel, not used by gay gamblers, but by modest travellers. An two o´clock, one fine day in June, there were two strangers in the salle a manger, seated at small tables a long way apart, and wholly absorbed in their own business. One was a lady about twenty-four years old, who, in the present repose of her features, looked comely, sedate, and womanly, but not the remarkable person she really was. Her forehead high and white, but a little broader than sculptors affect. Her long hair, coiled tight, in a great many smooth snakes, upon her snowy nape, was almost flaxen, yet her eyebrows and long lashes not pale but a reddish brown. Her gray eyes, large and profound; her mouth rather large, beautifully shaped, amiable, and expressive, but full of resolution; her chin a little broad; her neck and hands admirably white and polished. She was an Anglo-Dane, - her father English. If you ask me what she was doing, why - hunting; and had been for some days, in all the inns of Homburg.
