"lot's wife"
by anna akhmatova
translated by max hayward and stanley kunitz

and the just man trailed god's shining agent,
over a black mountain, in his giant track,
while a restless voice kept harrying his woman:
"it's not too late, you can still look back

at the red towers of your native sodom,
the square where once you sang, the spinning-shed,
at the empty windows set in the tall house
where sons and daughters blessed your marriage-bed."

a single glance: a sudden dart of pain
stitching her eyes before she made a sound . .
her body flaked into transparent salt,
and her swift legs rooted to the ground.

who will grieve for this woman? does she not seem
too insignificant for our concern?
yet in my heart i never will deny her,
who suffered death because she chose to turn.

The major was a little man with upturned mustaches. he had been in the war in libya and wore two wound-stripes. he said that if the thing went well he would see that i was decorated. i said i hoped it would go well but that he was too kind. i asked him if there was a big dugout where the drivers could stay and he sent a soldier to show me. i went with him and found the dugout, which was very good. the drivers were with it and i left them there. what effect does hemingway’s limited use of adjectives have? it slows down the narration by interrupting the action. it makes the few descriptive words he does use more vivid and forceful. it makes the narrator seem powerless and insincere. it prevents the readers from filling in the details with their own experiences.
