many women have ceased to look human at all. Whitewashed and ruddied, they seem to be wearing masks. One must look closely, to discover the living face beneath.
But often the face is not soft, often it turns out to be imperfectly alive.
The hardness and deadness are from within. They are the out-j ward and visible signs of some emotional or instinctive dishar- mony, accepted as a chronic con- dition of being. We do not need a Freudian to tell us that this dis- harmony is most often sexual,
