Excerpt from Eleanor: A Novel'Let us be quite clear, Aunt Pattie - when does this young woman arrive?''In about half an hour. But really, Edward, you need take no trouble! she is coming to visit me, and I will see that she doesn't get in your way. Neither you nor Eleanor need trouble your heads about her.'Miss Manisty - a small elderly lady in a cap - looked at her nephew with a mild and deprecating air. The slight tremor of the hands, which were crossed over the knitting on her lap, betrayed a certain nervousness; but for all that she had the air of managing a familiar difficulty in familiar ways.The gentleman addressed shook his head impatiently.'One never prepares for these catastrophes till they actually arrive,' he muttered, taking up a magazine that lay on the table near him, and restlessly playing with the leaves.'I warned you yesterday."And I forgot – and was happy. Eleanor – what are we going to do with Miss Foster?'A lady, who had been sitting at some little distance, rose and came forward.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
