Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Mildred Carver, U. S. A An extremely pretty girl came through a long window onto the veranda of a house set high above Torexo Park. The house had been built long ago by her grandfather, William Carver, a conservative gentleman who felt that his wish to live where he could look across the green summits of the Catskills justified the spending of much money. Many new people had come to live in the valley but no one could forget that his house - vast, dominating, ugly - had been the first upon the mountain side. To Mildred Carver who stood looking down the mist lined valley, the roofs of these newer houses were as familiar as the dark woods that stood along the hills, or the roads shining white in the blurred moonlight, - as familiar even as the lad who followed her through the window and over to the edge of the veranda. Mildred had seen Nicholas Van Arsdale every day during the summer that was just fading; every day of the summer before, and of the summer before that; and every summer as far back in her eighteen years as she could remember. The Van Arsdale cottage had been built just over the shoulder of the hill soon after the last inconsequent lightning rod was set on the tower of William Carver´s mansion.
