The Falling Star (Classic Reprint) - Tapa dura

Sinopsis

Excerpt from The Falling Star

Every now and then he glanced at the boy, who seemed once more to have be come unconscious Of his presence. He struck a match and lit the tobacco, stooping down for a moment to escape the slight evening breeze. Then he threw the match away, and lounged against the lichen-covered fragment of stone.

I wonder, he remarked, why, when you have the whole day in which to come and look at this magnificent view, you should choose to come just at the hour when it has practically been swallowed up.
