plasterer sutton "Actually, it's a novel." "I see. So it didn't actually happen?" "Well, no. It's a novel." She made sort of a face. "So it's just made-up storying..." "Well, yes, basically." She put the book back down & wiped her hands on her apron, like they were soiled and looked at me like I was a spoiled child. "Then I wouldn't be interested. I don't read things that aren't true." If she could have sent me to bed for the day, she would have, but I was already there.
