“L'Anna llegia al fons de l'entrada, davant d'una taula de petges tortes i a la claror bellugadissa d'un llum d'acetilè penjat a la paret i que trencava el silenci amb una mena de ranera de gat.”

Anna was reading at the far side of the entrance, in front of a table with twisted legs and in the flickering brightness of an acetylene lamp hanging on the wall and which cut the silence with a sound like the wheezing of a cat.
