Youth

My return to young Tove! We're in pre-WWII Copenhagen, Tove is 15, jobbing to help support her parents, freezing in unheated rooms, going to dancehalls and kissing in dark dark corners. She dreams of a room of her own, a room to write her poems. She seeks love, yet the young men don't interest her. She's a pragmatic. She learned that in relationships both parties want something from the other. She wants someone who can help her become a poet.

Still exquisite. Looking forward to part 3.
