Efím is an elderly coachman who sits high on the carriage box, entrusted with the practical work of departure. Before setting out, he crosses himself, a small gesture that gives his brief appearance a note of faith and solemnity. The book offers no longer account of his life, but leaves him memorable in that composed moment beside the reins.
