Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Mother´s Sacrifice: And Other Tales Nasta, the letter-carrier, had never ceased to weep over the loss of her little Wasylek. One day the pope of Tersow, meeting her on the high-road as she was going her rounds from the town of Smolnica to the villages, stopped and, wishing to console her, said: "Why do you continue to grieve in this manner, Nasta? You may be assured that your little boy is now among the cherubim in heaven." The cherubim! Never in her life had Nasta heard of such beings, and the words of the friendly priest, far from affording her any comfort, only seemed to trouble and agitate her. It was a year ago that her darling Wasylek had died, a year ago that the poor, shabby little coffin was carried to the cemetery by a kindly neighbour amid a blinding snow-storm, carefully sheltered beneath his sheepskin cloak.
