Quote from this book "Lorry shifted uncomfortably on the unsprung bed. She was really called Florence but had decided a year ago to become Lorry. She was happier that way. It was summer time, so she was not precisely cold; but the bedclothes lay too lightly upon her, and the sheets were too short. Presently the continual unaccustomed scratchiness of blanket against the skin of her feet woke her. Early though it was, a checker-board of sunlight played on the shiny wall alongside the squat barred window. The outline of each square followed the contours of the uneven stonework beneath the bright blue paint. Lorry, lying flat on the bed (for the narrow bedclothes came untucked if she rolled over on her side), looking up at the familiar criss-corss pattern, remembered abruptly where she was, and was immediately filled with rage and, at the same time, a sense of mild relief." opening paragraphs Secondhand booksellers |
