Robert William Chambers: Selective worksBy Robert William Chambers
The Fighting Chance by Robert W. Chambers, Fiction, Classics
From chapter III "Imprudence": The breeze-blown conversation became fragmentary, veering as capriciously as the purple wind-flaws that spread across the shoals.

Gray glinted on his temples; gray softened his sandy mustache: youth was finished as far as he was concerned. An odd idea persisted in his mind that it had been winter for many years. And the world thawed out very slowly for him.[...]
