Excerpt from The Pointing Man: A Burmese MysteryThrough the very heart of the native quarter of Mangadone, dust raised into a misty haze which hung in the air and actually intro duced a light undernote of red into the efiect. Dust, which covered the bare feet of the coolies, the velvet slippers of the Burmese, which en croached everywhere and no one regarded, for presently, just at sundown, shouting water men, carrying large bamboo vessels with great spouts, would come running along the road, casting the splashing water on all sides, and reduce the dry powder to temporary mud.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
