Georges Simenon ―The Tenant

Translation by Lila Papadouli-Gkinaka

excerpt:
"... He tried to move to see what was happening. Eli struck again, twice, three times, ten times, angry, because of those stupid and calm eyes that were looking at him.
He stopped, breathless, because he could not take it anymore. The English key slipped from his wet hands. He sat, turned towards the glass, to catch his breath, while his ears and nerves were tense. Was there another breath besides his own, inside this compartment? He hoped not. He had no desire to start again. The wrist of his hand was hurting.
Without looking at the corpse, he pulled down the curtains, then the glass. He noticed that although there was no snow in Saint Quentin, the fields here were white as far as the eye could see, and the sky was so clear, as if it were made of ice..."

The condition of the book is excellent.

― Happy reading!
