Fiction 2


She is the child of probably the swiftest and completest evolution time has ever known . .. she has burst one by one every bar of that gilded cage of convention beyond which her sanctified imagination never used to stray . .. on every crag of achievement some woman has carved her name . .. Has this new found liberty spoilt her? Has she, Moderna, grown ‘fast’ simultaneously with the pace of her development? Must we sadly revise in our mental catalogues many of the recognised qualities of womanhood in order to square them with this strange, modern product?
