For Gigi — With Chill and Irony

Filed under: General — Tags: , , — m759 @ 4:55 am

Today's Google Doodle, honoring soccer at the Paris games,
suggests a review of Hillman's "acorn theory" of the soul in
a Log24 post of September 10, 2022 . . .

"… I loved Gigi.  It fed directly into my Francophilia.
I was convinced that at some future date, I, like
Gigi, would be trained as a courtesan. I, too, would
cause some hard case, experienced roué to abandon
his chill and irony." — Jessica Kardon
