...sight of Davis grappling with the diction of Picasso and Gris, working his way through the lessons with the persistence of a man taking a correspondence course, remains very moving.

Maybe her four-color poster of Shaun Cassidy (life size, $6; smaller version supplied gratis with $5 membership in the fan club) is curling at the edges. Maybe the battery in her portable radio has failed right in the middle of the station's 14th daily airing of Shaun Cassidy's latest hit.
