Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from His Cousin Adair, Vol. 3 of 3 She had always associated her aunt´s stately figure with the great rooms at Earlshope, and the contrast made her present abode appear pitiably small. "My taste is hopelessly spoiled," Adair said with a laugh. "I look at everything from a sanitary point of view instead of an aesthetic. If people only knew it, the prophet´s chamber, with its bed and its stool and its candlestick, was quite a model one. I don´t know what they want with such a wilderness of little tables covered with breakables, and so many curtains to shut out the good light. There is little enough of it, I am sure." Mrs Earlstoun laughed at her zeal in opening windows and pushing back the offending curtains. It had cost Adair a hard struggle to give up her work at the hospital, but that was the least part of the sacrifice. At Mrs Earlstoun´s every old association would be renewed again. Has she strength enough for it? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
