Excerpt
WHEN Janet was a child, a vivid, repressed, darkling elf, she lived in a land of dreams. The dim, unrealized background of it were her father and her cousin Lilias. Ordinarily, his child was no more a potent reality to William Bellamy than he was to her, but there were occasions when he sentimentalized over her to his crony, old Jeremy Keyes. Some obscure discontent would strike into his idle blood; he would feel stirrings toward action, and by means of a whisky bottle he would create a shadowy, glorious world, with himself and Janet as triumphant actors.
