De cuando en cuando inclinaba vivamente la cabeza, como si se afirmara en alguna opinión, aunque no iba pensando en nada. Colgaba de su br...

El maestro se marchaba del pueblo y todo el mundo parecía sentirlo. El molinero de Cresscombe le había prestado su pequeño carro blanco y entoldado y el caballo para transportar sus enseres a su ciudad de destino, a unos treinta y dos kilómetros de distancia, ya que el vehículo en cuestión ofrecía sobrada capacidad para ese traslado. La vivienda de la escuela había sido equipada por la administración, y el único trasto engorroso que el maestro...

Un atardecer de finales de verano, antes de que el siglo XIX completara su primer tercio, un hombre y una mujer jóvenes, ésta con un niño en brazos, se aproximaban caminando al pueblo de Weydon Priors, al norte de Wessex. Iban vestidos con sencillez, aunque la espesa capa de polvo acumulada en el calzado y la ropa tras un viaje evidentemente largo pudiera dar la impresión de que iban mal vestidos. El hombre era gallardo, de tez morena y aspect...
