Girl going past clinging to a young man's arm. Putting up her face like a duck to the moon. Drinking joy. Green in her eyes. Spinal curvature. No chin, mouth like a frog. Young man like a pug. Gazing down at his sweetie with the face of a saint reading the works of God. Hold on, maiden, you've got him. He's your boy. Look out, Puggy, that isn't a maiden you see before you, it's a work of imagination. Nail him, girlie. Nail him to the contract. Fly laddie, fly off with your darling vision before she turns into a frow, who spends all her life thinking of what the neighbours think.

Cary: "The whole point of the trilogy is the all-pervasion of the political scene. Sara wants to rise in society and find a secure home but her appetite for life causes her to lose her bourgeois home and status. Amanda is 32 an introspective and bookish woman; her aunts are determined to see her married though each has a different candidate for husband.

Joyce Cary (born Arthur Joyce Lunel Cary December 7 1888 – March 29 1957) was an Anglo-Irishnovelist and artist.
