Gustav Monologue from The Creditor

From The Creditor by August Strindberg

male · dark · 41 sec

I'm sorry for you, old man. Although I'm not a doctor I am in a position to tell you that you are a dying man. One only has to look at your last pictures to be quite clear on the point. Your coloring is so watery, so consumptive and thin, that the yellow of the canvas shines through. It is just as though your hollow ashen white cheeks were looking out at me. Yes, and that's not only my view.
