Excerpt from The Prodigal Son: A Drama in Four ActsThis was followed by the creaking of a bed and the thud of bare feet on the ¿oor, accompanied by a running fire of grumbling, in which the speaker reminded herself that she was not a cat, capable of sleeping in the daytime, and if she had to be called up in the dead of night she might at least be permitted to wash her face.The girl listened for a moment and laughed - the light and joyous laugh of the soul that has never known sorrow. She was young and unusually fair. Her height was under rather than over the average height of woman, and if her face was not beautiful it produced the effect of beauty, being one of those soft-featured faces which have a smile always playing upon them, even when the owner does not know it to be there.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
