  • 89 Hambry

    сущ.; собст.; SK, DT 4
    Главный город, деревенского типа, в феоде Меджис. В нём и его окрестностях разворачиваются события, которым посвящена большая часть 4-го тома Тёмной Башни (история молодости Роланда и его первой любви). Главой города был Хартуэлл Торин.

    Most buildings on the High Street were adobe, but up here, overlooking Hambry’s business section, they were as squat and bricky as any narrow lane in Gilead’s Old Quarter. Well kept, too, with wrought-iron gates in front of most and tree-shaded paths. The roofs were orange tile, the shutters closed against the summer sun. It was hard to believe, riding down this street with their horses’ hoofs clocking on the swept cobbles, that the northwestern side of the Affiliation—the ancient land of Eld, Arthur’s kingdom—could be on fire and in danger of falling. — Большинство зданий на Главной улице были выстроены из саманного кирпича, здесь же, на улице, проходящей над деловым центром Хэмбри, предпочтение отдавалось красному кирпичу, как и в Старом квартале Гилеада. Ухоженные дома, кованые решетки ворот, чисто выметенные дорожки, оранжевая черепица крыш, ставни, защищающие от солнца. На этой тихой улочке просто не верилось, что северо-западная часть Альянса, древняя земля Эльда, Артурова королевства, пылает в огне и вот-вот рухнет. (ТБ 4)
