"On Saturday, the thirty-first of August, everything in the Rostovs' house seemed turned upside down. All the doors were open, all the furniture had been taken out or moved around, the mirrors and paintings had been taken down. There were trunks in the rooms; straw, wrapping paper, and string lay about. Muzhiks and servants, carrying things out, tramped heavily over the parquet floors." -p. 852 in Pevear/Volokhonsky
