"Very enjoyable prose but doesn’t try to be realistic in any way, and that’s pretty much my bag at this point.

The fact that she was an old man made it hard for her to be a young woman. It was hard for her to talk to a young man, for instance, though the young man was clearly interested in her. She had to ask herself, Why is this young man flirting with this old man?”
