Nitzan Bichler - 2012 - Capital as Power |
|
After a few moments she stopped with the shears resting on her knee A
thought which had been haunting her like some mexorcizable ghost at every
unoccupied moment durmg the past week had returned once more to distract
her It was the thought of what Mr
Warburton
had said to her in the tram-of
what her life was going to be like hereafter, unmarried and without money
It was not that she was m any doubt about the external facts of her future
She could see it all quite clearly before her Ten years, perhaps, as unsalaried
curate, and then back to school-teaching Not necessarily in qmte such a
school as Mrs Creevy’s-no doubt she could do something rather better for
herself than that-but at least in some more or less shabby, more or less prison-
like school, or perhaps m some even bleaker, even less human kind of
drudgery Whatever happened, at the very best, she had got to face the destiny
that is common to all lonely and penniless women ‘The Old Maids of Old
England’, as somebody called them She was twenty-eight-just old enough to
enter their ranks
But it didn’t matter, it didn’t matter' That was the thing that you could
never drive into the heads of the Mr Warburtons of this world, not if you
talked to them for a thousand years, that mere outward things like poverty and
drudgery, and even loneliness, don’t matter m themselves It is the things that
happen in your heart that matter For just a moment-an evil moment-while
Mr Warburton was talking to her in the tram, she had known the fear of
poverty But she had mastered it, it was not a thing worth worrying about It
was not because of that that she had got to stiffen her courage and remake the
whole structure of her mmd
No, it was something far more fundamental, it was the deadly emptmesis that
she had discovered at the heart of things.
