BETWEEN THE ACTS
“Prehistoric man,” she read, “half-human, half-ape, roused himself from his semi-crouching position and raised great stones.”
She slipped the letter from Scarborough between the pag­es to mark the end of the chapter, rose, smiled, and tiptoed si­lently out of the room.
The old people had gone up to bed. Giles crumpled the newspaper and turned out the light. Left alone together for the fi rst time that day, they were silent. Alone, enmity was bared; also love. Before they slept, they must fi ght; after they had fought, they would embrace. From that embrace an­other life might be born. But fi rst they must fi ght, as the dog fox fi ghts with the vixen, in the heart of darkness, in the fi elds of night.
Isa let her sewing drop. The great hooded chairs had be­come enormous. And Giles too. And Isa too against the win­dow. The window was all sky without colour. The house had lost its shelter. It was night before roads were made, or houses. It was the night that dwellers in caves had watched from some high place among rocks.
Then the curtain rose. They spoke.
