Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Without Kith or Kin, Vol. 1 of 2 With the greater number of us memory can stretch back and connect our present existence with the past; we are the natural product of those old years; we have grown out of them by a gentle and imperceptible progression; there are faces round us now that we knew when we were little children, - spots of the earth that we are familiar with still where we played long ago, - names that we yet speak daily which we used to lisp with baby lips: but the woman whose story I am going to tell you was cut off from all such recollections - all such aids to memory - as these. A sudden blow had divided her early years from all the other years that came afterwards, - a sharp severance that left that first poor little pallid fraction of a life to die out and fade away into the unknown. Where had she been born? - what had her name been? - who were her kith or kin in all the world? She never knew.
