Excerpt from Cupid's Understudy
Madeline Antoinette Hortense Pré vost, was awfully nice to me; so was grandmere Prevost. I lived with them till I was sixteen, when I was sent to France.
If I wanted to (and you would let me) I could personally conduct you to Paris, where if you were ten feet tall and not averse to staring, you could look over a certain gray stone wall on the Boulevard des Invalides, and see me pacing sedately up and down the gravel walks in the garden of the Convent of the Sacred Heart. That is, you could have seen me three years ago. I'm not there now, thank good ness! I'm in California.
