Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from On the Road to Arden
What's gone wrong? I said, and I drew her down on the window-seat beside me.
It was when we were little maids at school together that I formally took into possession this child of mine. She was five and I was six. She wore cherry-col ored hair ribbons, which, as I recall the effect, must have made vivid contrast with her auburn curls. It was for this that the boys were calling her Red top when I interposed. Long ago I learned that teasing is but an early form Of masculine attention, for ever since that day the Child's cavaliers have given me constant concern. I now surmised that at least one, if not more, was at the root of her distress.
