1. On rainy afternoons, embroidering with a group of friends on the
begonia porch, she would lose the thread of the conversation and a tear
of nostalgia would salt her palate when she saw the strips of damp earth
and the piles of mud that the earthworms had pushed up in the garden.
Those secret tastes, defeated in the past by oranges and rhubarb, broke
out into an irrepressible urge when she began to weep. She went back to
eating earth. The first time she did it almost out of curiosity, sure that the
bad taste would be the best cure for the temptation. And, in fact, she
could not bear the earth in her mouth. But she persevered, overcome by
the growing anxiety, and little by little she was getting back her ancestral
appetite, the taste of primary minerals, the unbridled satisfaction of what
was the original food. (One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel García
Márquez)

My little horse must think it queer
To stop without a farmhouse near
Between the woods and frozen lake
The darkest evening of the year.
He gives his harness bells a shake
To ask if there is some mistake.
The only other sound’s the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake.
(“Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening” by
Robert Frost)

3. Outside, even though the shut windowpane, the world looked cold.
Down in the street little eddies of wind were whirling dust and torn
paper into spirals, and though the sun was shining and the sky a harsh
blue, there seemed to be no colour in anything, except the posters that
were plastered everywhere. The black mustachioed face gazed down
from every commanding corner. There was one on the house-front
immediately opposite. BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING YOU, the caption
said, while the dark eyes looked deep into Winston’s own. Down at
street level another poster, torn at one corner, flapped fitfully in the
wind, alternately covering and uncovering the single word INGSOC. In
the far distance a helicopter skimmed down between the roofs, hovered
for an instant like a bluebottle, and darted away again with a curving
flight. (1984 by George Orwell)

4. In the period of which we speak, there reigned in the cities a stench
barely conceivable to us modern men and women. The streets stank of
manure, the courtyards of urine, the stairwells stank of moldering wood
and rat droppings, the kitchens of spoiled cabbage and mutton fat; the
unaired parlors stank of stale dust, the bedrooms of greasy sheets,
damp featherbeds, and the pungently sweet aroma of chamber pots. The
stench of sulfur rose from the chimneys, the stench of caustic lyes from
the tanneries, and from the slaughterhouses came the stench of
congealed blood. People stank of sweat and unwashed clothes; from
their mouths came the stench of rotting teeth, from their bellies that of
onions, and from their bodies, if they were no longer very young, came
the stench of rancid cheese and sour milk and tumorous disease.
(Perfume: The Story of a Murderer by Patrick Suskind)

was cold as ice. When she came to the middle of the

down the wall.
