Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Intrusion It was on an afternoon in October that they saw her first, and to Guen Suffield that fact alone might well have made the day memorable, even if there had not been about it some special quality of memorableness that made her see it, long afterwards, in the vivid way she did as though it has been etched into her mind, ineffaceably, like a drawing in copper. The morning had dawned wild and wet, but later, when some of its wildness had left it, you saw the new day as Autumns own a little wistful in spirit, but exquisitely dressed in green and gold, hung about with deep blue shadows and veiled, every now and then, by the silver mist of the fine-driving rain. If you looked closely you could almost see Autumn slipping a little deeper into the embrace of Winter, her sombre lover. That, somehow, was how the day stayed, coloured and wistful and reluctant, inGuen Suffields mind. And yet this is not Guen sstory. It is true, however, that she is inextricably mixed up with the telling of it, since, but for her, neither Allan nor Caryl would ever have seen Roberta, whose story this really is. That, at least, was what Guen always contended, which was why, after the thing happened, there were times when she felt worse about it than anybody else: worse than Allan, worse, possibly, than Caryl, both of whom it so much more closely concerned. One thing was certain. The thread of Allans misery there, at the end, was snapped suddenly by the sight of Caryls and by something else which doesnt, properly, belong to this story. Guen, Caryl and Allan. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
