LiToC Day 4

An epistolary love affair, as tense as anything in Clarissa, approaches its culmination, with the white carnation.  It was a short read this morning, just a few sentences before a shower, and I have cross contamination from the world of online on demand series from Netflix.  Having watched Lost in Austen, as an antidote to the growing evil and tension in Breaking Bad, I can see that love and decorum are an unholy mix, as Amanda Price finds out, when the world she dreams of becomes more complicated and difficult than we thought. LiToC also has the savagery of the constant civil wars as a background, just as Breaking Bad has the wars and feuds between the cartels. Which is better, which is worth more? What are our concepts of worth, well,  worth.
