Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The New Decameron, Vol. 3
I stood in the road, looking at the ?uffy, dark red young cattle that mooed and seemed to bark at me. They seemed happy, frisky cattle, a little impudent, and either determined to go back into the warm shed, or determined not to go back. I could not decide which.
Presently the woman came forward again, her head rather ducked. But she looked up at me and smiled, with that odd, immediate intimacy, something witch-like and impossible.
Sorry to keep you waiting, she said. Shall we stand in this cart-shed - ir will be more out of the wind.
