Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Hour Will Come, Vol. 1 of 2: A Tale of an Alpine Cloister They heave and roll noiselessly, spreading a white, misty sheet over the withered heath-grass. The mirror-surface of the moorland tarn lies lead-coloured and dull, wrinkled by the night-breeze, and its icy waters trickle in tiny rills over the bare plain and down to the valley. All is the same as it is to this day! Only life is wanting, life warm and busy, which in these days is stirring in the villages and homesteads that dot the plain, and that have brought the dead moorland into tilth and fertility. Profound silence reigns over the immeasurable level, throughout its length and breadth no living thing stirs; it is as if this were indeed the neutral space between Heaven and Hell - a vast, eternal void! Only the monotonous murmur of the Etsch - that cold artery of the desolate heath - and the roar of the winds that sweep at night across the plateau; these are the eerie voices of this realm of death.
