English term or phrase: in a heap
Szeretném, megkérdezni a véleményeteket, hogy szerintetek hogy lehetne lefordítani ebben a kontextusban a "heap " kifejezést?
Arról van szó, hogy egy erőszakos férj megveri a feleségét..

"
when she didn’t speak, he
bunched his fist, reared back his arm, and landed a punch against
her face so hard her world exploded in white. She went sprawling
over the desk, then tumbled IN A HEAP to the floor. "

köszönöm
