Bigger than anything he'd ever felt before. And it did not seem 'unnatural'. "Now he felt himself quiveringly alive with an emotion that threatened to overwhelm him.

"And even as he made that decision, he knew that he lied to himself."

Quote from this book "The hushed, expectant waiting - breathless, silent, motionless. And the moment when the idle trees sprang into individual life before the storm wind, tossing their branches wildly back and forth: since childhood he had always watched the transition from fatalistic stillness to excited, frantic motion with a feeling almost of awe. Those early storms when he was a child, and his mother, though scornful of the woman across the street who walked the floor in an agony of fear and always sought companionship with some neighbor, nevertheless very still and silent in her rocking chair when the thunder crashed outside. She was not afraid, she said. But she always put away her scissors so the lightning would not find them and Michael was not to stand in an open door." opening paragraphs Secondhand booksellers |
