Produktbeschreibung

At dawn my father rose, washed and said his prayers. I too. When we had dressed we ate pitta. He drank black coffee, I pomegranate juice.

Above us, and pale, like long dried flat stalks of papyrus grass, strips of wood hung in frames fixed to the beams. There was a bench against the wall with a wooden vice to hold the wood. On the wall hung fret saws and wood saws, ancient yet showing the signs of constant use.
