Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Desert and the Sown IT was an evening of sudden mildness following a dry October gale. The colonel bad miscalculated the temperature by one log - only one, he declared, but that had proved a pitchy one, and the chimney bellowed with flame. From end to end the room was alight with it, as if the stored-up energies of a whole pine-tree had been sacrificed in the consumption of that four-foot stick. The young persons of the house had escaped, laughing, into the fresh night air, but the colonel was hemmed in on every side; deserted by his daughter, mocked by the work of his own hands, and torn between the duties of a host and the host´s helpless craving for his after-dinner cigar.
