Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Other Side, of the Wall The beginning happens to be about Ann Stone, who went North to find a job. She alighted from the passenger end of a rickety ranch wagon one scorching day in the summer of 1916, and regarded without savour the dust-covered town of Los Adios, Texas, where she was to catch the north-bound express. John Blunt had driven her over, and as this was in Texas she did not give John anything, but said good-bye to him heartily and sat down on the station platform to wait. There appeared presently, from the wrong side of the horizon, a cloud of dust that grew into a train. It was an odd-looking train whose passengers kept their heads out of the windows and yelled at random. Further, as speedily appeared, they were all men, dressed just alike in khaki. In short, this was a troop train. The wheels creaked, and the train stopped. From a forward platform leaped a long and lithe young man with stripes on his sleeve. He gave one disgusted look at Los Adios, peered in at the deserted window of the station office, and approached Ann uncertainly. He was always uncertain how to address ladies; and further, Ann did not seem to belong in this landscape.
