Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Light Out of the East I, Lucas Cargill, once of Cargillfield in Scotland, the unworthy scion of a good house, sometime not wholly unknown as a London journalist and man of letters, but now only a servant of the Servant, write these things. I saw him first (a long while ago as it seems) standing on the mountain Trastevera, just where Abruzzi breaks down towards the green plain of Apulia. Not that at the moment, there was any green thing to be seen. For it was the time of late September, after the vintage, and all Apulia was sunbaked and cracked like the mud in a dry reservoir bottom. What I did there is no one´s business. Indeed, when I come to think of it, it was hardly my own. I had no business. God´s fiery index-finger had drawn itself across my life, effacing the past, searing and blistering the future.
