Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Absolution "The rats! Ugh, the rats!" cried beautiful Mrs. Tiralla, as she stood in the cellar with her maid. They had gone down to fetch some of the pickled cabbage from the tub in the comer in order to cook it, and the maid was carrying the lamp whilst Mrs. Tiralla held the earthenware dish. But now she let it fall with a piercing shriek, and lifted her skirts so high that you could see her gay-coloured, striped stockings, and her neat feet encased in shiny leather slippers. "Where are the rats?" The maid laughed and showed all her big white teeth. "I can´t see any rats. There are none here, Pani," and she looked at her mistress with a half stupid, half cunning leer on her face. "Pani must have been dreaming, there´s not a living thing in the cellar except Pani and Marianna. Sh! sh! hark! She bent her head and listened for a moment; then she shook it and laughed again. "Rats would patter, but there´s no sound of anything." She raised the lamp, so that the light shone all around.
