Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from An Echo of Passion
I know what you mean, said she, look ing up from her novel. She was nestled prettily on a traveling rug nearer the wall, with one of the lowest oak boughs darting out above and stretching its sharp-outlined leaves like a little roof above her pale golden head, a sort of votive image, placed there for her husband to worship. I have those sensations myself, sometimes, and I don't know what to make of them. How do you explain it, Ben? Is n't there something chemical, or physi physiological about it, or something of that kind?
A little bird in the neighboring birch-wood gave a loud, bright, astonished whistle at this question, and Mrs. Ethel's husband laughed under his mild reddish beard.
