Kate Atkinson Quotes
When Lillian Left Work In The Early Evening The Streets Were Slick And Shiny With Rain And The Lamps Flared Yellow Giving Her The Melancholy Feeling That Always Came With The Rain And The Dark. She'd Just Struggled To Push Up Her Umbrella When The Farmer From Saskatchewan Came Out Of The Shadows And Tipped His Hat Again, Very Politely, And Said Could He Escort Her Home? She Put Her Small Hand On His Broad Arm And Held The Umbrella Over Both Their Heads (he Was Very Tall) And He Walked Her All The Way Back To Her Lodging-house Where The Landlady, Mrs Raicevic, Looked After Edmund After School. By Then, Lillian Had Learned The Farmer's Name And She Said, 'Edmund, This Is Mr Donner,' And Pete Donner Squatted Right Down And Said, 'Hello There, Edmund, You Can Call Me Pete.' Although He Never Did, Preferring To Call Him 'Pop' Almost From The Day His Mother Married Him.
