Art/Literary - Poetry & Literature | | English term or phrase: tense | when she was attending..., listening
this sounds odd to me... what do you think. thanks in advance.
Like that afternoon at Saint-Germaine, ten years ago, when she was attending the first Saint-Simonian meeting , listening to Prosper Enfantin describe the messiah couple that would redeem the world, she promised herself, with assertiveness: “ You will be the messiah- woman”. Poor Saint-Simonians, having their hierarchy going mad, their insane love for science and their idea that it would have been sufficient to place businessmen to rule the country and administer society as an enterprise to achieve progress |
| | | English translation:It is OK | Explanation:
while she was attending, (while she was) listening...
