Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Fruit of the Tree It was one of the interests of Justine Brent´s crowded yet lonely life to attempt a rapid mental classification of the persons she met; but the contradictions in Amherst´s face baffled her, and she murmured inwardly "I don´t know" as she drew aside to let him approach the bed. He stood by her in silence, his hands clasped behind him, his eyes on the injured man, who lay motionless, as if sunk in a lethargy. The matron, at the call of another nurse, had minced away down the ward, committing Amherst with a glance to Miss Brent; and the two remained alone by the bed. After a pause, Amherst moved toward the window beyond the empty cot adjoining Dillon´s. One of the white screens used to isolate dying patients had been placed against this cot, which was the last at that end of the ward, and the space beyond formed a secluded corner, where a few words could be exchanged out of reach of the eyes in the other beds. "Is he asleep?" Amherst asked, as Miss Brent joined him. Miss Brent glanced at him again. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
