this thing was just taking flight, I wrote long letters to you - Roslyn 
- and received beautiful polite epistles in return. Little did I know 
that the very person with whom I was communicating then would turn up 
white, angelically and incredibly beautiful on the arm of my future 
editor and friend. Eh bien, c'est comme ca - and thank goodness for you
