I read the book. Man, what a snooze. Her attempts to make something meaningful of her unrestrained snogging made it a chore to get through. Anais Nin, Colette or a female Henry Miller she ain`t.
Who?
I have no idea who Catherine Millet is; but, this article made my memory flash on something.
In November 1994, President Bill Clinton and Hillary were at a Ford Theater Gala. Paula Poundstone was the host and and finally, Luther Vandross sang “Love The One You’re With”.
This was right when all the Bill Clinton “bimbo eruption” stories were starting.
When Vandross sang that song and the camera showed real enjoyment on Bill’s and Hillary’s faces, I finally realized that these people were beyond my experience and/or understanding. I had an epiphany and I saw the future of America - a low down kind of future.
At the time, it was actually a hurtful experience.
