Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Girl Named Mary She came homing through the wintry blackness, head and shoulders pressing ahead of her steps, her eyes fixed above the dark crowds and the trodden snow on the warmth and shelter and beauty waiting to take her in. The massed shoulders pressed aside to let her through, dirty hands holding out their "Lady, for the love of God - " fell away before the sure aim of her purpose and her oblivion of all else. She went like one who has earned her right to oblivion, acknowledging only the wind. It was heavy with sleet, but she breathed it eagerly, taking it down like a purification for body and spirit. She was turning from the crowds and the slime to the more serene streets, where the snow was still white, when voices spoke at her elbow. "Well, so long, Mary!" "So long!" was called back.
