Excerpt from The Magpie, One of the EphemeralsHe left the room, slamming the door as he went out. The young man stood in front of the fire, turning around from time to time as the front or the back of his body got too warm, but avoiding a near approach to the ¿ames for fear of chilblains. After getting well warmed, he sat down in a rocking chair and almost dozed away, so sleepy had the change from the cold and the wind made him.In about twenty minutes the older man came back with an appetizing meal on a striped japanned tray.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
