“She was
never going to seek gainful employment again, that was for certain. She'd
remain outside the public sector. She'd be an anarchist, she'd travel with
jaguars. She was going to train herself to be totally irrational. She'd fall in
love with a totally inappropriate person. She'd really work on it, but abandon
would be involved as well. She'd have different names, a.k.a. Snake, a.k.a.
Snow - no that was juvenile. She wanted to be extraordinary, to possess a
savage glitter”
