She opened the drawer in the table and began flinging the papers out of it on the table at random, poking me in the chest with her elbow and brushing my face with her hair; as she did so, copper coins kept dropping upon my knees and on the floor.Она как-то беспорядочно, толкая меня в грудь локтем и касаясь моего лица волосами, выдвинула из стола ящик и стала оттуда выбрасывать мне на стол бумаги; при этом мелкие деньги сыпались мне на колени и на пол.Чехов, А.П. / ЖенаChekhov, A. / The wifeThe wifeChekhov, A.© 1st World Library - Literary Society, 2004ЖенаЧехов, А.П.© Издательство "Наука", 1974
Something crossed her face, some sort of recognition, like when you’re poking a stick at a king snake, teasing it and jabbing at it, and you suddenly realize it’s not a king, but a coral, that it could kill you anytime it damn well wants.Внезапно выражение ее лица изменилось, словно ее озарила догадка. Такое бывает, когда теребишь палкой ужа, бьешь и дразнишь его и вдруг понимаешь, что это вовсе не уж, а гадюка, и что она может ужалить в любой момент.Liss, David / The Ethical AssassinЛисс, Дэвид / Этичный убийцаЭтичный убийцаЛисс, Дэвид© К.
