cheek by jowl

%% рядом, бок о бок; локоть к локтю

Examples from texts

It was a smell of night within night, the smell of digging down deep in shadow through earth that had lain cheek by jowl with things that were long hidden and decayed.
Запах чужой земли и темной ночи, запах земных недр и того, что схоронено в них и уже тронуто тленом?

I couldn't explain to a demon that a slicboard was the only way to prove I was still alive, after lying cheek-by-jowl with death and tasting bitter ash on my tongue.
Как объяснить демону, что катание на слике — это единственный способ почувствовать себя живой после того, как ты встречался лицом к лицу со смертью и чувствовал на языке ее горький вкус?
