Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Desmond Rourke Irishman "I haven´t seen a woman for six months!" Jeanne, the daughter of old Courvois, proprietor of the Café Fleur de Lys, at Santola, glanced across the counter at the flushed and dusty man who had spoken, and lifting her full lids slightly, replied to him in a tone which was completely passive and unmoved. "Comment? Seex months - C´est drôle ça." Her hands, meanwhile, went on with the drying of a wine-glass which had occupied them when the stranger addressed her, but she found time to flash a glance at her father, who was regarding them from his end of the cafe with an expression of interested amusement. "Droll is it?" said the man earnestly. "Well, it may be to a woman. But a man who´s been back of the mountains feels that a woman´s face is a kind of diversion." The earnestness of his tone brought the slow blood to Jeanne´s cheeks. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
