...they are particularly open-minded, but only if this "minority" student approaches them within their context. So very few straight students at this University feel comfortable joining me at a dinner table of known male gay students. A woman who does so is immediately branded as a "fag hag," just as a White student who sits and associates with Black students is considered a "nigger lover." (Of course, we don't use that term any more--"We know better"--but the thought still persists...

...mending is dissipated by Fernand's softness of manner and voice. It is his nature to be a gentle, mothering person.

...really seems as if someone is forcing Teddy to act the way he does. The scene in which Teddy directs Ryder to gallop around the restaurant like a cowboy and threatens to force him to make love to Angel on the counter while calling the terrified boy a "fag" and "queer," is psychic and physical torture reminiscent of the rape in Deliverance...

...innocence, and once we have lost that it is futile to attempt a picnic in Eden." Her style was difficult and sometimes, in its defiance of syntax and even grammar, infuriating. In 1955 Punch effectively parodied the Bowen manner: "She lit the sodden stub of last night's fag and took a sip of gin and meth to cut, as she'd have put it, the phlegm." Bowen knew that her style was odd and that it limited her popular appeal. But her manner of writing faithfully reflected the intense but indirect way she looked at the world...
