Talk:Marlis

English-language quotation

• 1997, Louise Erdrich, Tales of Burning Love, page 165:

  Marlis Cook scared women, snowed men. She had an eye-focusing quality, matched a swimsuit-calendar ideal, her smile was a fast print film that invited instant response. Hair: streaked pale brown, frosted, pulled to one side in a thick tail. Eyes: big, periwinkle blue, black lashed, and void. Figure: medium. Jeans: tight. Heels: high. Age: maybe.
