| Opening: |
Sydney, 9 September 1983 - A glass of tea? Or maybe a little schnapps? The old woman`s hair was arranged carefully about her perfectly shaped skull like skeins of beige silk. As the boy hesitated, she chuckled, and rose briskly on her neat, stick legs to bring over two glasses and a bottle of cognac.
(Elaine Feinstein: The Border, page 11) |
