intercourse
32 Barbara: She spoke of her vile
mother, her grief over the death of her father the glory days when
Richard scooped her up. And then jettisoned wife and children for
what she called a nonstop fuckfest. Sheba faces
more deep- seated
personality conflict and
frustation
32 It is a peculiar trait of the
privileged: immediate incautious intimacy. But Sheba went well
beyond the tendencies of her class. She was utterly candid, a novice
confessing to the mother superior. Sheba: You know, marriage and
kids, I mean, it is wonderful, but it does not give you meaning. It
gives you an imperative but it does not help you… My father always
used to say, you know, on the tube, “mind the gap”. I do not
know. It is just the distance between life as you dream it and
life as it is.
33 Barbara: It must be exhausting,
running a family and teaching as well…
Sheba: I can not wait for term to end. Rol on Christmas and a
month of sod all. I should not have kidded my self I could teach.
It is just that I have…I have spent the last ten years looking after
Ben, and I was so desperate to get out and do something. And finally
we get him into this great local school and I am free to work.
Barbara:
You’re gonna be a terrific teacher.
Sheba: Thanks. But I’m bloody hopeless, and everyone knows it.
Sheba faces more deep-
seated personality
conflict and frustation
31 Steven: Thank you, Miss. You’re
beautiful, Miss. You don’t know how beautiful you are.
Sheba: I hadn’t been pursued like this for years. I knew it was wrong
and immoral and completely ridiculous, but I don’t know. I just
allowed it to happen. They have
mutual attraction and
love interest.
