Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Ollivant Orphans They had expected to return as they came, Ed, Matt, Beckie and Lainey in the first carriage, Ann and Roland with the aunts in the second carriage. But at the last moment, shattered by a fresh outbreak of weeping, Ann had thrown herself between her sisters; and Roland, in what was palpably panic at the thought of segregation, had leaped in behind her. Now they sat huddled dose, the three girls facing the horses, the three boys riding backwards. Ann´s head, almost buried under the rich disarray of her hair, lay on Lainey´s shoulder. They clung so close that they might have been a sculptured group, Ann passionately relaxed, Lainey tense and drawn. When the sobs burst from Ann´s writhing mouth, they seemed to run noiselessly up the long line of Lainey´s translucent throat until they died on her delicate lips. Roland had settled back in the corner as though asleep, but his swollen lids did not conceal the moist glitter that oozed between his inky lashes. "I don´t want to go back to the house," Ann burst out after the long silence which had been interrupted only by her grief.
