"Mr and Mrs Sprague were a very nice middle-aged couple. They lived in Albany, New York, and they had managed to remain mentally alive. They read a lot of books, some of them not chosen by book clubs, owned a few nice paintings and had quite a good collection of phonograph records, including Scheherazade. They were proudest, however, of their son Everett. He was an unusual and talented boy. In six months down in New York City he had done well. He was already top assistant to one of the most important dress designers in the business." opening paragraphs of "Fulvous Yellow" by Stanley Kauffmann Secondhand booksellers |
