„Mrs. Beresford had once had black hair, a vigorous curling mop of it. Now the black was adulterated with streaks of grey laid on, apparently at random. It made a rather pleasant effect. Mrs. Beresford had once thought of dyeing her hair, but in the end she had decided that she liked herself better as nature had made her. She had decided instead to try a new shade of lipstick so as to cheer herself up.“

Ich liebe sie und Tommy. Neulich habe ich mal eine Verfilmung gefunden bei youtube und habe sofort wieder ausmachen müssen, so neben meiner Vorstellung (und der Beschreibung) waren die DarstellerInnen.
