From The Bostonians, by Henry James

PARTY

"He heard the popping of corks, he felt the pressure of elbows, a thickening of the crowd, percieved that he was glowered at, squeezed against the table, by contending gentlemen, who observed that he usurped space, was neither feeding himself nor helping others to feed."

From Chapter 28
