...taking my nauseated refusal for shyness. When I used the Serbian version of thank you, they revised my meager vocabulary to fit their own dialect. Two of them were professors; the pudgy man who showed off a snapshot of his daughter in return for a look at my ID taught economics, and Janev's field was philosophy, but they had all been recruited for manual labor in one of Tito's work brigades. Janev flipped through an envelope of photographs till he found a group portrait for me to remember them...

...that there's anything wrong with a little idoriented activity. Harpo Marx, the id of the '30s, manages to be perfectly interesting, as well as completely human. But Emmanuelle, whose only purpose in life seems to be to run around chasing new and pleasurable experiences while her husband is at work or playing polo, misses no chance to degrade herself. If ever a woman asked to be exploited, it's she; her willingness to abandon inhibition takes her finally to a Hong Kong brothel, where she sells herself to three sailors and brings the profits home proudly to Jean...
