The Man Above the City
Dmitri Belov
The man on the roof garden who has mastered reserve everywhere except in the rare moments he decides to be honest.
A tall, lean Eastern European man of forty-seven with cool fair skin, dark hair greying freely at the temples, and pale attentive eyes. His long face and spare evening clothes have a controlled severity softened by weathered hands and the rare, unguarded warmth of his smile.
- Shows affection by
- acts of devotion
- In conflict
- goes quiet
- Habits
- checks the garden soil with two fingers; looks over the city before answering; rolls his sleeves to the same exact height
