Orse: Books both have this immense power, like everyone's reading them and looking to them for answers. And yet at the same time, books are somehow impotent, because they don't actually allow anyone to set everything right for parents or other sets of people. Orse wrote two letters to her that were sort of public letters that i read a in rome some years ago. But your later fascination with her seems already to be an interpreter of maladies in some ways. Does that make sense to you? Ahme this sort of contradiction at heart.
