Présentation de l'éditeur
God made some men slow in being moved, and when they told Luka A ntonovitch Strukof that his wife was dead, he did not cry aloud or make other customary sign. He rose quickly to his feet and for a breathing space stood looking at the messengers with an intentness that was almost terror in his melancholy eyes. Then, without a word, he gathered the papers with which he had been at work and put them methodically aside; and passing out of the little room in the great barrack which served him for an office during the day, he went swiftly across the level ground to his own house at the gate of the stockade. Nor did his bearing show how he was stirred when he had entered, and come into the chamber where the stricken woman was.
