Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Fair to Middling "She has a profusion of taste, and all of it quite bad." Madam Reid reinspected her future daughter-in-law´s photograph. She tapped her lorgnette petulantly against the edge of her red-lacquer desk which furnished a dominating note in the breakfast room. At this imposing desk Madam Reid was accustomed to sit at housekeeping accounts or wrote "characters" for departing maids. Here, often, had stood her only child, Martin, and her orphaned niece Dare Willoughby, to whom Madam had been kind but never friendly, to receive punishment and reward, the carved red-lacquer dragons as unsympathetic witnesses. Whenever she was at the desk, something that was her "bounden duty" - she thought very highly of that useful phrase - might be expected to happen.
