Colin Thubron: Shadow of the Silk Road
In the dawn the land is empty. A causeway stretches across the lake on a bridge of silvery granite, and beyond it, pale on its reflection, a temple shines. The light falls pure and still. The
noises of the town have faded away, and the silence intensifies the void—the artificial lake, the temple, the bridge—like the shapes for a
ceremony which has been forgotten.

traveller from the phrase “laughs through her fingers”
