The light had faded, and dark, bilious clouds had taken its place. In the three short weeks I'd spent in Cornwall, I'd learned two things: that the weather was not to be trusted, and that the wind never ceased to blow. Fair weather or foul, it whistled and murmured and moaned, like a living, breathing, tortured being. It had risen since it played innocently among the foxglove blooms earlier stirring the mists along the graveyard gate. Now it was angry, driving the black clouds inland from the sea. Waterfowl raced before it dotting the sky like a blizzard over the mighty house, and I'd scarcely pulled the car to a stop when the rain came. It was just as I remembered it from my drive-by earlier, like a creature of myth silhouetted against the storm-a huge, rambling, turreted structure of stone and timbers defying its existence in such a setting. Yet, aside from a wounded turret, a few missing boards, and a good deal of broken glass, Cragmoor approached the dawn of another century remarkably intact. I tried to imagine the house as it once must have been, ablaze with light and life, surrounded by manicured lawns and courtyards and lush, fragrant gardens. Now it rose from a tangled snarl of briar, thorn, and desolation. Row upon row of darkened windows, catching stray glints of the fading light, shuddered in the wind as the gale bore down upon it. The house was asleep, and I was about to wake it. 3525072 5 6 2008 Rape of the Soul total:15|5:15|4:0|3:0|2:0|1:0| 15 75 20 2 3483681 0981557325 9780981557328 15 2 5.00 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1255933889m/3483681.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3483681.Rape_of_the_Soul 5 1 false Thu Jun 05 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Sat Jun 28 13:47:34 -0700 2008 Tue Jul 01 11:41:31 -0700 2008 more...]]> 3483681 0981557325 9780981557328 15 2 5.00 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1255933889m/3483681.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3483681.Rape_of_the_Soul 5 0 false Thu Jun 19 07:12:52 -0700 2008 Sat Jan 10 20:45:04 -0800 2009
