Produktinformationen zu „Dust (ePub)“
"Dust" is an absorbing work by Julian Hawthorne, American writer and journalist and the son of the celebrated novelist Nathaniel Hawthorne.
Excerpt from "Dust"
"THE time at which this story begins was a time of many beginnings and many endings. The Eighteenth Century had expired the better part of a score of years before, and everything was in confusion. Youth-tumultuous, hearty, reckless, showy, slangy, insolent, kindly, savage-was the genius of the hour. The Iron Duke had thrashed the Corsican Ogre, England was the Queen of nations, and Englishmen thought so much of themselves and of one another that society, for all its caste, became well-nigh republican. Gentlemen were bruisers and bruisers were gentlemen. At Ranelagh and Vauxhall fine ladies rubbed shoulders with actresses, magistrates foregathered with jockeys and sharpers, and the guardians of public order had more to fear from young bloods and sprigs of nobility than from professional thieves and blacklegs. Costumes were grotesque and irrational, but were worn with a dash and effrontery that made them becoming."
