Sinossi
Excerpt from The Man Apart
The Ostend packet was preparing for sea. Steam hissed from her pipes, pale fumes rose from her funnels, the noisy rattle of the cranes by her side accompanied the steady swing of luggage into her forward holds. Passengers poured on to the upper decks, and scrambled aft for sheltered seats wharf-hands, shouldering all sorts of baggage, ran from the dockside trains to the steamer, jostling one another for their turn over the gangways in pursuit of their various clients. The scene, indeed, looked so full of an individual and peculiar animation that it was hard to conceive of its repetition thrice daily throughout the year.'
