The smell of mothballs and Ben-Gay drifted off, replaced by the scent of suntan lotion and titillating aftershave.Запах нафталинных шариков и бальзама «Бен-гей» рассеялся, уступив место щекочущему аромату лосьона после бритья и более нежному – крема для загара.Liss, David / The Ethical AssassinЛисс, Дэвид / Этичный убийцаЭтичный убийцаЛисс, Дэвид© К.

I pressed myself into my grandfather’s chest and smelled the old-man smell of him, the mothball version of my own father, the blood on Earth, the sky in heaven.Прильнув к дедушкиной груди, я вдыхала стариковский запах, схожий с папиным, только пронафталиненный, запах плоти на Земле, запах неба на небесах.Sebold, Alice / The Lovely BonesСиболд, Элис / Милые костиМилые костиСиболд, Элис© 2002 by Alice Sebold© Е.
