Only if she leaves the color filters at home

Yes, it is David, not Fred (of The Wonder Years). I don’t think any of Jaffe’s other books was successful, but she did establish a foundation awarding grants to emerging women writers. (www.ronajaffefoundation.org).

I don’t know what Rona was doing with those character names - not only Shalimar but Caroline Bender, Fred Savage, Dexter Key, Gregg Adams.

Hope Lange’s reader's report (three sentences?) suggesting her potential (at least in Brian Aherne’s (Fred Shalimar!) eyes) is priceless. Crawford, Boyd, Bob Evans, Suzy Parker - embarrassment of riches.

You have to wonder, yet again, who the NYT thinks its audience is.

Curious about the cost, too. And would like to see a floor plan to see how they lay out three bedrooms in 980 sq ft.

Don’t get me all worked up about “caryatid” again. 😬 But I certainly did try chilblain.

One of the best of the James film adaptations, along with The Innocents and (of course) The Heiress, which I must have watched six times during lockdown. And Lee Remick makes The Bostonians worth a watch.

HBC is excellent in the underseen Wings of the Dove.
