内容简介

Book Description She sat there， vividly conscious of herself， and sometimes she saw the whole room as a picture and she was part of it; sometimes she saw only those three whose lives， she felt， were practically over， for even Aunt Rose was comparatively old. She pitied them because their romance was past， while hers waited for her outside; she wondered at their happiness， their interest in their appearance， their pleasure in parties; but she felt most sorry for Aunt Rose， midway between what should have been the resignation of her stepsisters and the glowing anticipation of her niece. --This text refers to the Paperback edition.
