Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Collection of British Authors It is a curious experience to come back in after years to an old mood and to find it all changed and swept and garnished; emotionless, orderly now; - are the devils of indifference and selfish preoccupation those against which we are warned in the parable? Perhaps it is some old once-read and re-read letter which has brought it all back to you; perhaps it is some person quietly walking in, followed by a whole train of associations. Who has not answered to the call of an old tune breaking the dream of to-day? Is the past, past, if such trifles can recall it, or only not-present? One day Colonel Baxter, an officer lately returned from abroad, came up to the door of an old house in Sussex, and stopped for an instant before he rang the bell. The not-present suddenly swept away all the fabric of the last few years. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
