Reseña del editor

Excerpt from The World's Illusion, Vol. 1: Eva

In Vienna he owned a small but beautifully furnished house. Two old, unmarried ladies were its guardians - the Misses Aglaia and Constantine. They were his distant kinswomen, but he was devoted to them as to sisters of his blood, and they returned his affection with an equal tenderness.

On an afternoon in May the two sat by an open window and gazed longingly down into the street. He had announced the date of his arrival by letter, but four days had passed and they were still waiting in vain. Whenever a carriage turned the corner, both ladies started and looked in the same direction.
