“This vainglorious
walk gave her an illusion of strength and power: she had charmed, won, such a
man. She felt heightened in her own eyes, while knowing this sensation was not
different than drunkenness, and that it would vanish like the ecstasies of
drink, leaving her the next day even more shaky, even weaker at the core,
deflated, defeated, possessing nothing within herself.”
