...matters as transition and selection of detail. However, he has taken such pains to avoid breaking the mood that there is no change of pace whatever. Chace might have given the story more motion by a dynamic use of dialogue, instead of burying the spoken conversation in description and stream of consciousness. The phrasing is near-perfect. There is hardly a bad sentence in the piece, except, perhaps, the first one ("In the spring of that year time hung over the city in a grey fog"), which is pretentious enough to keep some readers from looking further...

The Communists piously forbade San Marinese themselves to enter the casino, relied upon a steady stream of wealthy, land-owning Italians and foreign tourists. Said San Marino's parish priest resignedly: "At first the parishioners thought the casino a scandal. Then they got used to it, for the price of furnished rooms began to rise considerably. There is hardly a family which does not have...
...week's end the crowds were already gathering. In response to manifestoes issued by the General Confederation of Labor (C.G.T.), provincial workers were beginning to stream into the capital. Transportation by train, plane, ship or bus was free. When the great day came, free buses and taxis would be waiting at piers and railway stations. Also free to the visitors: food, drinks, futbol games, boxing matches, variety shows, movies...
