    @@@@@Most of my art
    supplies were upstairs, but there were a few boxes
    of colored pencils in one of the drawers of the
    living room desk, and I took one of those, as well
    Back in the Florida room (which I would always
    think of as a porch), I sat down and closed my
    eyesI listened to the waves do their work
    beneath me, lifting the shells and turning them
    into new patterns, each one different from the one
    beforeWith my eyes shut, that grating was more
    than ever like talk: the water giving temporary
    tongue to the edge of the landAnd the land
    itself was temporary, because if you took the
    geological view, Duma wouldn't last longNone of
    the Keys would; in the end the Gulf would take
    them all and new ones would rise in new locations
    It was probably true of Florida itselfThe land
    was low, and on loan

    Ah, but that sound was restful
    Without opening my eyes, I felt for Ilse's e-mail
    and ran the tips of my fingers over it againI
    did this with my right handThen I opened my eyes,
    brushed the e-mail printout aside with the hand
    that was there, and pulled the Artisan pad onto my
    lapI flipped back the cover, shook all twelve of
    the pre-sharpened Venus pencils onto the table in
    front of me, and began to drawI had an idea I
    meant to draw Ilse - who had I been thinking of,
    after all? - and thought I'd make a spectacularly
    bad job of it, because I hadn't attempted a single
    human figure since starting to draw againBut it
    wasn't Ilse, and it wasn't badNot great, maybe,
    not Rembrandt (not even Norman Rockwell), but not
    bad
    It was a young man in jeans and a Minnesota Twins
    tee-shirtThe number on the tee was 48, which
    meant nothing to me; in my old life I used to go
    to as many T-Wolves games as I could, but I've
    never been a baseball fanThe guy had blond hair
    which I knew wasn't quite right; I didn't have the
    colors to get the exact darkening-toward-brown
    shadeHe was carrying a book in one handHe was Ilse's special
    newsThat was what the shells were saying as the
    tide lifted them and turned them and dropped them
    againShe had a ring, a diamond,
    he had bought it at -
    I had been shading the young man's jeans with
    Venus BlueNow I dropped it, picked up the black,
    and stroked the word

    much of the violence came directly from me

    Right then, another very simple and obvious truth occurred to me

    it to the KGB officer“I need another favor, KruppieThat’s a telephone number here in ParisIt’s
    supposed to be a direct line to the Jackal, but it didn’t match the one Bourne was given that did

    @@@@@The audience drew in
    its breath, a sound like a brief but loud gust of
    windI heard that and knew it wasn't just Wireman
    and the folks at the Scoto who understood
    They gasped the way people do when they have been
    blindsided by something completely unexpected
    Then they began to applaudIt went on for almost
    a full minuteI stood there gripping the left
    side of the podium, listening, dazed
    593
    The rest of the presentation took about twentyfive
    minutes, but I remember very little of itI
    was like a man conducting a slide-show in a dream
    I kept expecting to wake up in my hospital bed,
    hot and shot through with pain, roaring for
    morphine
    xii
    That dreamlike feeling persisted through the postlecture
    reception at the ScotoI had no sooner
    finished my first glass of champagne (bigger than
    a thimble, but not much) before a second was
    thrust into my handI was toasted by people I
    didn't knowThere were shouts of "Hear, hear!"
    and one cry of "Maestro!" I looked around for my
    new friends and didn't see them anywhere
    Not that there was much time to lookThe
    congratulations seemed endless, both on my talk
    and on the slidesAt least I didn't have to deal
    with any extended critiques of my technique,
    because the actual paintings (plus a few sketches
    in colored pencil for good measure) were
    squirreled away in two of the large back rooms,
    594
    safely under lock and keyAnd the secret of
    avoiding getting smashed at your reception if
    you're a one-armed man, I was discovering, was to

    damned if she didn't tip me a wink from behind her
    nineteen-fifties-style cat's-eye glasses as she
    handed her champagne flute back to one of the
    circulating waiters

    that if she was going to speak French, she'd have
    to wait until I was wearing my Manet beretShe

    From about the time of her entering the family, Lady Bertram, in
    consequence of a little ill-health, and a great deal of indolence, gave
    up the house in town, which she had been used to occupy every
    spring, and remained wholly in the country, leaving Sir Thomas to
    attend his duty in Parliament, with whatever increase or diminution
    of comfort might arise from her absenceIn the country, therefore,
    the Miss Bertrams continued to exercise their memories, practise
    their duets, and grow tall and womanly: and their father saw
    them becoming in person, manner, and accomplishments, everything
    that could satisfy his anxietyHis eldest son was careless and
    extravagant, and had already given him much uneasiness; but his
    other children promised him nothing but goodHis daughters, he
    felt, while they retained the name of Bertram, must be giving it new
    grace, and in quitting it, he trusted, would extend its respectable
    alliances; and the character of Edmund, his strong good sense and
    uprightness of mind, bid most fairly for utility, honour, and happiness
    to himself and all his black quilted bag connexionsHe was to be a clergyman
    Amid the cares and the complacency which his own children suggested,
    Sir Thomas did not forget to do what he could for the children
    of MrsPrice: he assisted her liberally in the education and disposal
    of her sons as they became old enough for a determinate pursuit;
    and Fanny, though almost totally separated from her family, was
    19
    Jane Austen
    sensible of the truest satisfaction in hearing of any kindness towards
    them, or of anything at all promising in their situation or conduct
    Once, and once only, in the course of many years, had she the happiness
    of being with WilliamOf the rest she saw nothing: nobody
    seemed to think of her ever going amongst them again, even for a
    visit, nobody at home seemed to want her; but William determining,
    soon after her removal, to be a sailor, was invited to spend a week with

    profession, as made her gradually admit that the separation might
    have some useEdmund’s friendship never failed her: his leaving Eton
    for Oxford made no change in his kind dispositions, and only afforded
    more frequent opportunities of proving themWithout any
    display of doing more than the rest, or any fear of doing too much, he
    was always true to her interests, and considerate of her feelings, trying
    to make her good qualities understood, and to conquer the diffidence
    which prevented their being more apparent; giving her advice, consolation,
    and encouragement

    recommended the books which charmed her leisure hours, he encouraged
    her taste, and corrected her judgment: he made reading
    useful by talking to her of what she read, and heightened its attraction

    CHAPTER III
    THE FIRST EVENT of any importance in the family was the death of
    MrNorris, which happened when Fanny was about fifteen, and
    necessarily introduced alterations and noveltiesNorris, on
    quitting the Parsonage, removed first to the Park, and afterwards to
    a small house of Sir Thomas’s in the village, and consoled herself for
    the loss of her husband by considering that she could do very well
    without him; and for her reduction of income by the logo louis vuitton evident necessity
    of stricter economy
    The living was hereafter for Edmund; and, had his uncle died a
    few years sooner, it would have been duly given to some friend to
    hold till he were old enough for ordersBut Tom’s extravagance had,
    previous to that event, been so great as to render a different disposal
    of the next presentation necessary, and the younger brother must
    help to pay for the pleasures of the elderThere was another family
    living actually held for Edmund; but though this circumstance had
    made the arrangement somewhat easier to Sir Thomas’s conscience,
    he could not but feel it to be an act of injustice, and he earnestly
    tried to impress his eldest son with the same conviction, in the hope
    of its producing a better effect than anything he had yet been able
    to say or do
    “I blush for you, Tom,” said he, in his most dignified manner; “I
    blush for the expedient which I am driven on, and I trust I may pity
    your feelings as a brother on the occasionYou have robbed Edmund

    CHAPTER XXX
    MISS CRAWFORD’S UNEASINESS was much lightened by this conversation,
    and she walked home again in spirits which might have defied
    almost another week of the same small party in the same bad weather,
    had they been put to the proof; but as that very evening brought her
    brother down from London again in quite, or more than quite, his
    usual cheerfulness, she had nothing farther to try her ownHis still
    refusing to tell her what he had gone for was but the promotion of
    gaiety; a day before it might have irritated, but now it was a pleasant
    joke—suspected only of concealing something planned as a pleasant
    surprise to herselfAnd the next day did bring a surprise to her
    Henry had said he should just go and ask the Bertrams how they
    did, and be back in ten minutes, but he was gone above an hour;
    and when his sister, who had been waiting for him to walk with her
    in the garden, met him at last most impatiently in the sweep, and
    cried out, “My dear Henry, where can you have been all this time?”
    he had only to say that he had been sitting with Lady Bertram and
    Fanny
    “Sitting with them an hour and a half!” exclaimed Mary
    But this was only the beginning of her surprise
    “Yes, Mary,” said he, drawing her arm within his, and walking
    along the sweep as if not knowing where he was: “I could not get
    away sooner; Fanny looked so lovely! I am quite determined, Mary
    My mind is entirely made upWill it astonish you? No: you must be
    aware that I am quite determined to marry Fanny Price
    The surprise was now complete; for, in spite of whatever his consciousness
    might suggest, a suspicion of his having any such views
    had never entered his sister’s imagination; and she looked so truly
    the astonishment she felt, that he was obliged to repeat what he had
    said, and more fully and more solemnlyThe conviction of his de254
