...e de maneira que é assim, como disse Agustina na voz de Camila:

"Vou-me embora sem nenhum pretexto. É como se faz quando se morre."

The Gentleman's Companion.

The Gentleman's Companion foi publicado anonimamente em 1870, e é um guia que identifica e descreve os principais locais de má vida de Nova Iorque.

Vale a pena ler o artigo publicado aqui no City Room, que é um blog do New York Times, e do qual deixo este excerto:

"Readers of the book, “The Gentleman’s Directory,” learned that “an hour cannot be spent more pleasantly” than at Harry Hill’s place on 25 East Houston Street. And they learned that Ada Blashfield of 55 West Houston Street had “8 to 10 boarders both blondes and brunettes,” playing host to “some of our first citizens.” The book also divulged that Mrs. Wright’s place at 61 Elizabeth Street had “everything that makes time pass agreeably,” and that Miss Jennie Creagh had spared “neither expense nor labor” at 17 Amity Street, a onetime Manhattan address, to conjure a “palace of beauty forever” out of French mirrors, rosewood furniture and fine bedding."

O documento com as partes que o NYT destaca está aqui, e também fica o link para a versão em PDF. Classy indeed, I say.
