Reseña del libro "The Look of Re-veiled Asians"
Nobbut hoped there wasn't something on him and wondered at the mosques of the Moslems, which looked like giant spiders with their legs turned up in death, that is, if the great mosque at Mecca was anything to go by; so was it where they worshipped spiders or mosquitoes? Genuflecting, he opened a bottle of wine with a screw top. Pouring a glassful, he drank. Tearing a piece of bread from an uncut loaf, Nobbut Bullitz spoke the magic formula, which Jesus had taught the disciples at what came to be known as his 'Last Supper' before his death, 'This is my body, which is broken for you.
