Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Crimson There the sun shining on that fountain makes the water look like diamonds." I turned and saw an old man seated on the park bench, one end of which I occupied. He was very old. His snow white hair reach to the collar of his thread bare naval coat and the thin face was partially covered by short white whiskers.

"It does look like jewels: it flashes, sparkles, throws different colors just like diamonds." "Ah", he muttered, "diamonds," then turning to me he said quickly. "Do not think that those bits of stone that flash fire are harmless - did you ever think of the blood that is shed - the hate that grows - the strife that is caused all from these bits of stone with souls." I looked up quickly. His eyes gleamed with memories and he was gazing into the distance. He seemed not to be speaking to me but rather to himself, as he saw visions, visions that were of the past, a past full of events, that were not the common place happenings of most of our daily lives.
