Résumé : |
""I'll show you. By heaven ! I'll show you." Then he put his open hand over his face and withdrew it. His face became a black hole. "Here," he said. He stepped forward and handed Mrs Hall something which she, staring at his face, took without thinking. Then, when she saw what it was, she screamed loudly and dropped it. The nose - it was the stranger"s nose, pink and shining - rolled on the floor with a sound of hollow cardboard.
Then he removed his spectacles, and everyone in the bar breathed deeply. He took off his hat, and tore at his beard and bandages.
It was worse than anything they had ever seen. Mrs Hall, open-mouthed with terror, ran to the door of the house.
Everyone began to move. They expected scars, wounds, something ugly, but they saw - nothing ! The bandages and false hair flew across the passage into the bar. Everyone fell over everyone else down the steps.
For the man who stood there shouting was a man up to the shoulders and then - nothing ! |
