Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Mr. Britling Sees It Through It was the sixth day of Mr. Direck´s first visit to England, and he was at his acutest perception of differences. He found England in every way gratifying and satisfactory, and more of a contrast with things American than he had ever dared to hope. He had promised himself this visit for many years, but being of a sunny rather than energetic temperament - though he firmly believed himself to he a reservoir of clear-sighted American energy - he had allowed all sorts of things, and more particularly the uncertainties of Miss Mamie Nelson, to keep him back. But now there were no more uncertainties about Miss Mamie Nelson, and Mr. Direck had come over to England just to convince himself and everybody else that there were other interests in life for him than Mamie... And also, he wanted to see the old country from which his maternal grandmother had sprung. Wasn´t there even now in his bedroom in New York a water-colour of Market Saffron church, where the dear old lady had been confirmed? And generally he wanted to see Europe.
