ABOUT THE AUTHOR

内容摘要:

HE SEES the faces which surround him mirror astonishment， puzzlement， then outrage， then fear， as if they looked beyond his wild antics and saw behind him and looking down upon him， in his turn unaware， the Final and supreme Face Itself， cold， terrible because of lts omniscient detachment. He knows that they see more than that: that they see the trust of which he proved himself unworthy， being used now for his chastisement， it seems to him now that he talks to the Face: "Perhaps I accepted more than I could perform. But is that criminal? Shall be punished for that? Shall I be held responsible for that which was beyond my power?" And the Face: "It was not to accomplish that that you accepted her. You took her as a means toward your own selfishness. As an instrument to be called to jefferson; not for my ends， but for your own."
