Présentation de l'éditeur
There are persons alive, and dully pursuing happiness, for whom a drab house in London or its dingy outskirts forms a fitting shell. Like forlorn hermit-crabs, they hasten to conceal their vulnerable pulp in any mean but handy structure ;they merge artistically in the tones of a soulless suburb or by-street; they do not rebel against contact. Classing themselves with their own order, whose limit of revolt is reached when they protest against a common imposition, they accept all things, even themselves, with ignoble cheerfulness.
