THE PAGAN MADONNA

"Humdrum isn''t where you live; it''s what you are. Perhaps you are one of those whose lives are bound by neighbourly interests. Imaginatively, you never seek what lies under a gorgeous sunset; you are never stirred by any longing to investigate the ends of rainbows. You are more concerned by what your neighbour does every day than by what he might do if he were suddenly spun, whirled, jolted out of his poky orbit..."Harold MacGrath was a bestselling American novelist, short story writer, and screenwriter.
