Opis

Excerpt from The Nether World, Vol. 3 of 3: A Novel This winter was the last that Shooter's Gardens were destined to know. The leases had all but run out; the middlemen were garnering their latest profits; in the spring there would come a wholesale demolition, and model-lodgings would thereafter occupy the Site. Meanwhile the Gardens looked their surliest; the walls stood in a perpetual black sweat; a mouldy reek came from the open doorways; the beings that passed in and ofit Seemed soaked with grimy moisture, puffed into distortions, hung about with rotting gar ments. One such was Mrs. Candy, Pennyloaf's mother. Her clothing consisted of a Single gown and a Shawl made out of the fragments of an old counterpane; her clothing - with exception of the shoes on her feet, those two articles were literally all that covered her bare body. Rage for drink was with her reaching the final mania. Useless to bestow anythingupon her; straightway it or its value passed over the counter of the beershop in Rosoman Street. She cared only for beer, the brave, thick, medicated draught, that was so cheap and frenzied her so speedily.
