Windows Like Eye Sockets
All Resolutions
London about me gazed at me spectrally. The windows in the white houses were like the eye sockets of skulls. About me my imagination found a thousand noiseless enemies moving.
Description:
Nightmarish view of a street fading into darkness and in which a large eyeball stares behind every window, as a gigantic and threatening head topped with a lantern looms over the roofs.
The caption reads in this Belgian edition:
Toute la ville semblait me regarder avec des yeux de spectre. Les fenêtres des maisons blanches étaient des orbites vides dans des crânes, et mon imagination m’entourait de mille ennemis silencieux.
