Dear Alexey,

I don't think we disagree, do we? I certainly agree that I have a lot of reading and re-reading to do.  But really, do you have no response to my p.s.?

Marina is not the only failed actress in Ada. Her daughter isn't very
successful either. And come to think of it, Van turns out to be something of
a mediocrity on the world stage as well.


Doesn't anyone find it -- well -- true but strange?

Carolyn
