Sinopsis

Excerpt from Pan's Mountain

The corrugated line of its tiled eaves lent it a certain air of petulance, as of one frowning against the sun, and from beneath peered its small, deep-socketed eye-windows. It was a house With a personality, With a character, With an expression of its own. And its charm was that of the irregular beauty who has kept the magic of sex against time and against disease.

Excerpt from Pan's Mountain

Upon an evening in the month of May,
When from the heavens like a burning tear

The sun dropped down,
Then did the blood awaken in the veins
Of the young maiden wandering through the fields.
Then the blood cried to her,
And the blood burned in her,
And, as it burned within her, thus it spake:
"What art thou making, maiden, of thy youth?

What wilt thou make of me?
I tire of this light tripping to and fro,
This idle running through thy strong young frame,
Now, would I fain stand still and do my work;
And mark, when thou shall see
This work of thine own flesh, thy blood renewed,
Then shalt thou thank the blood that gave thee this."
So the blood burned within her,
And thus it cried to her.
And there beside the maize-field,
The other one was waiting,
He - the mysterious one.

In the month of May, at even,
The sun drops down from heaven
Heavily, like a tear.

-From "The Bard of The Dimbovitza."
