Book Description
Excerpt from The Eternal Spring: A Novel His Florentine past, in which Elizabeth Craven was so much concerned, revived in silence rather than in speech. After the first few words there was a pause. Mrs. Craven, leaning a little away from him in her corner of the seat, watched him in the silence that implied that past. She was giving him time for his impression. She waited for him to speak. And this struck Carleton at once as an unexpected change that the five years had made in her. But she, too, was noting changes. Each of them, after the first welcome to the known, was taking account of the unknown. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
