Guess the Opening Line!

[Amalie]

Ok. This may be a bit overdone on other places, but I'm stealing the original idea and giving it a spin with Russian works alone. Let's see how much we've actually read!

The person who guess the opening line (posted by the previous member) correctly, can give the answer and post another one and so it goes...

So if I were to say: "All children, except one, grow up." the person to guess 'Peter Pan' would get to post next....
HAVE FUN!

I shall kick off...

"At the hour of the hot spring sunset two citizens appeared at the Patriarch’s Ponds."

Patrice you should name the book which has the above given closing line :) and then give your challenge.

So guess the answer:

"At the hour of the hot spring sunset two citizens appeared at the Patriarch’s Ponds."
-----------------------------

The answer for your one is Anna Karenina

[Terry]

Opening Line "All families..." Anna Karenina
Closing Line "At the hour...Patriarch's Ponds." The Master & Marguerita

Love them both

I'm going to restart.

"In Petersburg in the eighteen-forties a surprising event occurred..."

Father Sergius.

"On an exceptionally hot evening early in July a young man came out of the garret in which he lodged in S. Place and walked slowly, as though in hesitation, towards K. bridge."

Notes from Underground? (Dostoyevsky)

I can't continue, don't read books in English. Somebody else can write at my place a sentence.
