Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Green Patch There came a day when Christopher Lambe found that he could no longer bear his wife, his three little girls, Lambe House, Sussex, England in general. He was standing on the downs at dawn, looking at the pallid expectant sea against which a windmills motionless arms looked as if they were etched by an impressionist master. Lambe loved the world at hours when it seemed empty, and now he stood there shivering slightly, for it was chilly; his hands buried in the pockets of his old green shooting jacket, himself the only human thing in sight. He was a narrow-shouldered man with a long neck and light eyes that were really large, but looked small from his habit of keeping them half closed. He wore no mustache at a time when most men did. His nose was long and delicate and looked through its unusual fineness of modeling and translucent nostrils as though it might in moments of emotion be tremulous. Behind his small figure, down in the hollow, lay Lambe House, a large, square Georgian building, still asleep behind its trees.
