First, Lessing (and through the eyes of Anna and Molly) gives so much attention to the way the young man looked; second, the three characters engage in a banter that sounds like what people may say when they explore the possibility of a romance; Molly invites him up; and then the strawberries, wine, and the soft but extravagant description of the light.<br /><br />And Molly was just complaining about how austere England was!  Is she attempting to bring back the sensuousness with the wine and strawberries? ]]>
