Excerpt from Le Vieux Garain: Roman
Vous le voyez: de tout le canton de Charles X, je suis le seul qui tient bon. D'ailleurs le coffre est solide. J'étais de ceux dont la viande casse les dents, et j'avais une mâchoire à y broyer des Je n'ai pas dit mon dernier mot.
Et lei-dessus, le père Gilles, de son gros nez charnu et vorace, humait sa prise sur le bout d'un pouce-alerte et frétillant qui faisait le pied de nez au reste de l'univers.
