Daily Dose

From Exile and the Kingdom, by Albert Camus, translated by Justin O'Brien

THE SCENT

"The scent of burning shavings began to fill the shop. Years, who was planing and fitting the staves cut our by Esposito, recognized the old scent and his heart relaxed somewhat. All were working in silence, but a warmth, a life was gradually beginning to reawaken in the shop. Through the broad windows a clean, fresh light began to fill the shed."

From The Silent Men
