Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from When Eve Was Not Created, and Other Stories On the edge of the far North Sea, just where the last point of the gleaming white cliff dips down into the treacherous water, there rests on a narrow shelf of sand, in a niche formed by rock and sea, a tiny fisher village, that is the beginning of my story. To think how it ever came there at all is but to make another observation on the marvellous persistence of mans nature. To comprehend, when fertile plains are yet unbroken, how it is that folk will live there; to watch how they will drive picks into the rock behind in order that they may mine out another inch of doorstep, so that some time in a rage the black water may not quite suck them under; to explain all these things with satisfaction is to solve many questions of the universe and throw open the shut gates of science. Yet there the village is, and there it has been for centuries. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
