Publisher Description: "Don Hedger had lived for four years on the top floor of an old house on the south side of Wash-ington Square, and nobody had ever disturbed him. He occupied one big room with no outside exposure except on the north, where he had built in a many-paned studio window that looked up-on a court and upon the roofs and walls of other buildings. His room was very cheerless, since he never got a ray of direct sunlight; the south cor-ners were always in shadow. In one of the corners was a clothes closet, built against the partition, in another a wide divan, serving as a seat by day and a bed by night. In the front corner, the one farther from the window, was a sink, and a table with two gas burners where he sometimes cooked his food. There, too, in the perpetual dusk, was the dog's bed, and often a bone or two for his comfort." |
