I'm happy to chime in a little late. There's something absolutely exquisite about blimp's best story (and that means most of them) with their tension between a polished, polite, civilized surface and the boiling, restrained emotions underneath. I must admit I was a little scared the first time I encountered Miss Taylor, but now that I have learned what young, beautiful schoolmistresses are really like, I somehow find them more attractive than ever before. |
