Entre Actos - Virginia Woolf

. .

Résumé :
Era una noche de verano y, en la amplia estancia con ventanas que daban al jard?n, hablaban acerca del pozo negro. El consejo del condado hab?a prometido llevar agua al pueblo, pero no lo hab?a cumplido. La se?ora Haines, esposa del caballero terrateniente, una mujer que ten?a cara de oca y unos ojos saltones, como si vieran algo que tragar en la acequia, dijo con afectaci?n: ??Vaya tema de conversaci?n en una noche como esta! Entonces hubo un silencio; una vaca mugi?, y esto dio pie a que la se?ora Haines comentara cu?n raro era que, siendo ni?a, jam?s hubiera temido a las vacas, solo a los caballos. Aunque hab?a que tener en cuenta que, cuando era muy peque?a, todav?a en el cochecito, un caballo de tiro hab?a pasado a un dedo de su cara. Su familia, dijo la se?ora Haines al anciano que estaba sentado en un sill?n, hab?a residido cerca de Liskeard durante siglos. Las tumbas que hab?a en el cementerio as? lo demostraban. Fuera, un p?jaro gorje?. ??Un ruise?or? ?pregunt? la se?ora Haines. No, los ruise?ores no llegaban tan al norte. Era un p?jaro diurno que, animado por otro d?a sustancioso y suculento, por los gusanos y los caracoles y la arenilla, gorjeaba incluso dormido.
