Book excerpt: Excerpt from Coraddi, Vol. 48: December, 1943 Edward looked at his orange juice with dis taste. Oh, all right l he said. He drank it quickly and scowled then he kissed Victoria and went to the chair in the living room where his coat and books were. DO you have your glasses? She called, And your lunch money? He dropped a Yeah! And left it hanging there as he dashed out. Miriam finished her cereal. Her face looked childishly puffy, the way it always did in the morning. She stood, stretched, kissed Victoria, said Bye, Mother, and left. Nathan had gone nearly an hour ago; he had finished his coffee and said, At eight O'clock on Monday morning, teach ing is a noble profession. SO Victoria was alone with the breakfast dishes and her second cup of coffee and the morning sunshine across the table. She went into the living room and took two cigarettes out Of the box on the coffee table. Going back to the breakfast room, she thought, Mrs. Pepys didn't have tobacco to fall back on. She wondered about coffee. Hello, Mrs. Pepys, would you like a second cup Of coffee? Won't you join us, Mrs. Thackeray? No, really, there's plenty. You don't have to hurry; we have eternity. Canby said Nathan's book had the sound of eternity. It was in the Saturday Review last week - did you happen to read it? The other reviews were favorable, too - the Times and the Tribune, even the New Yorker, and Publishers' Weekly and the Atlantic. The local Clarion was good, of course, and the New York Sunday editions; then the weeklies and the month lies. Gentlemen and scholars all: Classic, they pronounced. After Stephen Finney and Blood of Battle, Nathan Ewing's latest Offering estab lishes him as one of the leading literary figures Of the twentieth century. And Canby said, Nathan Ewing has the sound Of eternity. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
