"There's the pendulum ticking, it doesn't care, it doesn't feel sorry for anyone." What a crusher of a sentence.
Story 2: a pawnbroker marries one of his customers. He then proceeds to ignore her, rather treat her with distance and is then surprised she jumped out of a window.
I don't know enough about 19th century Russian romantic customs to say anything about that.
