Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Bel-Ami One Evening, an Artifice and Other Stories When the cashier had given him the change out of his five-franc piece, George Duroy left the restaurant. As he had a good carriage, by nature as well as from his military training, he drew himself up, twirled his mustache, and threw upon the lingering customers a rapid and sweeping glance - one of those glances which take in everything within their range like a cast net. The women looked up at him in turn - three little work-girls, a middle-aged music mistress, disheveled, untidy, and wearing a bonnet always dusty and a dress always awry, and two shopkeepers´ wives dining with their husbands - all regular customers at this popular-price establishment. When he was on the sidewalk, he stood still a moment, asking himself what he should do. It was the 28th of June, and he had just three francs forty centimes in his pocket to carry him to the end of the month. This meant the option of two dinners without luncheon or two luncheons without dinner. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
