The Desire of the Moth: And the Come On (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from The Desire of the Moth: And the Come On
At his feet the plain broke away sharply, in a series of steplike sandy benches, to where the Rio Grande bore quartering across the desert, turning to the Mexican sea; the Me silla Valley here, a slender ribbon of mossy green, broidered with loops of flashing river -a ribbon six miles by forty, orchard, wood land, and green field, greener for the desolate gray desert beyond and the yellow hills of sand edging the valley floor. Below him 'las Uvas, chief town of the valley, lay bask ing in the sun, tiny square and street bordered with greenery: its domino houses white walled in the sun, with larger splashes of red from courthouse or church or school.
