Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from True Love Leaving the Herald office, Arden paused before taking the step down to the street, and looked about him. He was faintly conscious of the familiarities; the ornate bulk of the Exchange, now in process of expansion, the lines of other buildings, the clanging trams, all the hurrying, changing forms which, at the instigation of Imalian, he had sometimes tried to see in terms of the new art. Imalian, of course, did not call it the new art, for to use an expression so crude would have vexed his connoisseurship; if you used it his kindly indulgence reduced your irony to a mere facetiousness. It was not Imalian that Arden wanted now, though a thought of that romantic Eastern crossed his mind. Imalian stood for deep and secret things. A man of the world, but he discoursed of prints or of bookbindings with that strange and secret look of his which suggested something infinitely beyond them. Bonsor did not like it; Bonsor resented it; ´You cannot trust the fellow,´ he said. It is true that the reputation of Imalian´s firm stood high in Manchester and that there was nothing positively against the man, but these Easterns may be honest for some inscrutable reason not founded on the rock. Bonsor rolled out his denunciation of Jews, Turks, infidels, and heretics - such a phrase was a godsend to him - and he had no use for minor distinctions. Imalian looked gray and stony when Turks were mentioned, but there was no denying that he was a Turkish subject.
