During my daily wander around the Internet, I came across
this curious short prose piece called "Girls". It begins:
I read this short story in a magazine where a girl student goes into her professor's office and sits at his desk and passes him a note which he opens and which reads: 'Girls like to be spanked.' But I've lost it. I've lost the magazine. I can't find it. And I can't remember what happened next. I wouldn't bother to post this here, except that the author is the late Harold Pinter, famous playwright and winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature.
As you can see, the start of the piece sounds like a lot of posts on the forum here. Pinter goes on to speculate about what this lost short story is about. It's all a bit meandering, though to his credit Pinter is keenly aware that the key question in all this is: "Was she spanked?"
And then there is the enigmatic final paragraph, which frankly has me befuddled. (This is Nobel prize caliber literature after all, so no surprise it goes over my head.)
Anyway, worth a look if you want to see how a literary giant deals with spanking.
