Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Last Refuge: A Sicilian Romance
So, then, said the Freiherr, half gravely, half whimsically, we understand each other. From this day forth my dependence shall be wholly on you.
He raised his hand from the travertine halus trade and placed it, with a kind of fond appeal, upon young Bruno's shoulder. Yes, your eyes shall be my eyes; your senses shall be my senses. I shall see things as you see them, and feel them as you feel them; and the world that was so beautiful in my youth shall become beautiful once again.
Bruno turned his dark eyes upon his new found friend in a glance that was full of good-will, and as full of sympathy as his years would allow.
