We’re losing all sense of value, of what makes a real work of art. When I see people on the left, intelligent, cultured people, like Dominique, at his age, who pretend to like that stuff, who force you to pay tribute to the latest thing because it’s alive, it’s young, it’s ‘new,’ it’s the Mozart of today. ” I slipped into my nightgown. “It’s decadence, plain and simple, Liz. But it’s become the mainstream. ” All right … “It’s a statement of resistance. ” I let down my hair. He let go of me. It’s just …” I sighed and sat up.
