End of Shopgirl: read with “loyalty and acceptance” (quote from final page of the story)
And I have to admit, I’m mildly intrigued as to how the great Steve Martin settled into penning the slightly vulgar yet strangely effective sex scenes between characters. Even more intrigued by his method for moving beyond sex to the honest learning of adult individuality. Left me smiling, contented like a happy cat.
