A lot happens, emotionally - polarity-wise going from “bosom of family”
briefly thru “pleasant walk in the rain” to “unsettling ever-deepening
encounter with a demigod of Neoliberalism”
Almost no named peripheral characters like you sometimes get. Except those
mentioned in convo I guess, who are actual public figures.
Exceptions: Stonechat & Marvin.
Time frame:
Sat nite g&d
Sunday - I suspect she chilled all day, making …
*Monday* the “Next day, evening rush hour, it’s just starting to rain…”
because the descriptions pertain better to a weekday.
Monday night with the wiener dream*
Tuesday - Marvin
Wednesday - gets the thumb drive back
* Personally I don’t think this indicates more than that Windust accosted
her ungently in a way that stays on her mind. There’s no way she could be
said to enjoy any part of it.
So where’s the sexism? perhaps, the idea of writing from a female
perspective in the first place -
“Not that it is done well, but that it is done at all?”
