Excerpt from The Postscript
Esther Da Trofo studied her domain as the lake showed it to her in its round mirror. Rank on file of live-trees spread orderly over six of her seven hills, with her hospitable white house in the foreground, as well as the grim orphanage - unsightly testimony to the old Contessa's charity. Her eyes roved from hill to hill in a perfectly unpossessive fashion.
"He loved it," she said softly, "and I should too, if I were not so lonely."
A burst of young life rushed wildly from the orphanage, screaming, gesticulating, leaping, with all the excess energy of youth.
