Code Name Hélène

by Ariel Lawhon

I am a devoted fan of the male species. They are brave, brilliant, offer endless entertainment, are good for moving heavy objects, and make the act of procreation a great deal more enjoyable. I’d hate to see a world in which they did not exist. But sometimes they can be spectacular idiots.

The friendships of women are strange and wonderful. Fraught and irreplaceable.
