Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Short Stories of the Tragedy and Comedy of Life, Vol. 5 The war was over. The Germans occupied France. The country was panting like a wrestler lying under the knee of his successful opponent. The first trains from Paris, after the city´s long agony of famine and despair, were making their way to the new frontiers, slowly passing through the country districts and the villages. The passengers gazed through the windows at the ravaged fields and burned hamlets. Prussian soldiers, in their black helmets with brass spikes, were smoking their pipes on horseback or sitting on chairs in front of the houses which were still left standing. Others were working or talking just as if they were members of the families. As you passed through the different towns, you saw entire regiments drilling in the squares, and, in spite of the rumble of the carriage-wheels, you could, every moment, hear the hoarse words of command.
