You are right, we cannot do without it. But-have you an umbrella?" "An umbrella?" She moved and laughed again, much more gayly. "I am serious. Come here and look at Ischia." She went with him quickly to the window. "That blackness does look wicked. But it's a long way off." -from Chapter XII One of the most popular fiction writers of the early 20th century, Robert Hichens was beloved for the enchanting romance of his prose.
