The Orange-Yellow Diamond

Více o knize

The setting vividly portrays a stark contrast between the drab streets of Paddington and the grandeur of nearby Sussex Square. The description highlights the pervasive sense of semi-poverty, with dilapidated houses and anxious inhabitants who seem devoid of joy. The shops offer poor-quality food, and the taverns lack appeal, contributing to an atmosphere of desolation. Observers are left pondering the lives and thoughts of the residents, who appear trapped in a stagnant existence, far removed from the vibrancy of nearby parks and gardens.
