Her beauty was not a sharp, cold commodity. She smelled musty, womanly, like a bundle of your favourite clothes... She wore her sexuality with an older woman's ease, and not {as with most of the girls Archie had run with in the past} like an awkward purse, never knowing how to hold it, where to hang it or when to just put it down. {~of Clara Bowden}
