A Very Old Man with Enormous Wings
Siužetinės Linijos Tekstas
- "On the third day of rain they had killed so many crabs inside the house"
- "On the following day everyone knew that a flesh-and-blood angel was held captive in Pelayo’s house"
- "What surprised him most, however, was the logic of his wings. They seemed so natural on that completely human organism that he couldn’t understand why other men didn’t have them too"
- His huge buzzard wings, dirty and half-plucked, were forever entangled in the mud. They looked at him so long and so closely that Pelayo and Elisenda very soon overcame their surprise and in the end found him familiar
- With the money they saved they built a two-story mansion with balconies and gardens and high netting so that crabs wouldn’t get in during the winter, and with iron bars on the windows so that angels wouldn’t get in
- Story show a example how is the human response to those who are weak, dependent, and different. There are moments of striking cruelty and callousness throughout the story.
