Did the narrator trifle with Tita's affections, or was it just her imagination (or cunning)?

Characters, readers, author - who needs patience, who has it?

Afterwords

Did you miss the meeting? Or did we fail to discuss all the questions? Perhaps something slipped your mind, or only occurred to you later. If so, here's your chance to continue the conversation. For the time being, this blog is open for comment only to registered members of the book group. Other readers may contact me at hcrane@cambridgema.gov. Please, no flaming or cussing.
