Mr Peacock's Possessions Quotes

“They are both exposed now, to each other, and also to the wind, which has stirred itself again and buffets and nudges and pushes them from all directions. Only the faintest turning up of his mouth, barely visible- you can hardly see his face for beard- but it seems to Lizzie at this moment that his eyes have been becalmed.”
― Lydia Syson, Mr Peacock's Possessions
