Abstract
I find myself compelled to take up Virginia’s wonderings about what the letters I have received called from me, and simultaneously feel a sense of coming up short somehow. It is as if I am standing too close to an impressionist painting, maybe one by Mary Cassatt—at once enchanted by the swirling impasto brushwork, by the jewel and flesh-toned palette, yet unable to see or feel the full story of the painting.
