EVERGREEN STORIES
A CHOICE OF ALL-TIME FAVOURITE TALES
SELECTED BY HILARY LAURIE
Madame Loisel now looked an old woman. She had become the typical poor man's wife, rough, coarse, hardbitten. Her hair was neglected, her skirts hung awry, and her hands were red. Her voice was no longer gentle, and she washed down the floors vigorously. But now and then, when her husband was at the office, she would sit by the window and her thoughts would wander back to that far-away evening. the evening of her beauty and her triumph.
