    For these girls, career was a matter of falling madly in love, or being carried away through the force of someone else’s desire, being allowed to travel in exchange for their bodies and a bit of their self, their soul — the Baroness modeling for the stained-glass artist, the playwright who wrote a play about her, the husband-novelist who wrote books about her. This is what allowed them temporary access into artistic circles and allowed them EXPERIENCE. (Better than other careers for bright intellectual girls at that time, such as being an invalid.)
