Examples from texts

But when she thought about Cafferty, she couldn’t help picturing Richard Pennen, too-glad-handing at Prestonfield House, cosseted by yes-men, buffed to a spotless sheen.
Сейчас, размышляя о Кафферти, она не могла выбросить из головы Ричарда Пеннена, раздававшего улыбки и рукопожатия в «Престонфилд-Хаусе», избалованного угодниками, отполированного до блеска.
