Shall we go and see our old teacher?
:16:06
Shall we go and see
our good old teacher?
:16:11
"He'd been my tutor
when I was studying literature. "
:16:14
"His rule was never
to seduce his students. "
:16:17
"I'd never been his mistress.
But it could have happened. "
:16:22
"I tell him how I've become a reader.
About Eric.
:16:26
How it came about
and how the story ended. "
:16:29
"I'm seeing Eric tomorrow."
:16:31
You always end up twisting people
around your little finger.
:16:35
You have such beautiful intonation.
:16:39
"Ah." say I.
:16:41
I've had another offer.
A general's widow.
:16:44
Perhaps you should avoid Maupassant.
:16:47
It won't be the hospital
but the cemetery.
:16:50
It's best if you don't specialize
in killing your customers.
:16:55
Zola.
:16:56
Your friend is right,
only the Naturalists count.
:16:59
Have you read "The Masterpiece"?
:17:02
You must, my dear.
:17:04
Here it is. It's the story...
:17:07
No, listen:
:17:10
"It was on the previous morning
that she left Clermont for Paris,
:17:14
where she was to take up a post
reading to a general's widow."
:17:19
"A maid was to meet her."
:17:21
"A means of recognition
had been arranged by letter:
:17:24
"A grey feather in a black hat."
:17:27
There you are.
:17:29
You'll wear a hat with a black feather.
:17:32
You forget she's Hungarian,
that's why I came.
:17:34
Do you know any Hungarian writers?
:17:38
I'm sorry,
I still have some marking to do.
:17:47
Will you tell me how it went?
