Men det fanns något annat också. Stilen i uppträdande och handlande, en oklanderlig form i levnadssätt, ett modus vivendi i den egna privata livsföringen, en hållning mitt i all hållningslösheten, en attityd av tillkämpad stil mitt i allt det stillösa och förkonstlade.

The veneer she had carefully painted to protect and hold herself together was peeling away.”

“The men were not watering the grass; they were spraying it an emerald green. This was Ireland in an atomizer. The workers were coloring the dead, hurrying to finish before the Crown Prince's gaze would zoom by, perhaps peering through the bullet-proofed, tinted, heavily-armored glass of his German car. So much about the Kingdom concerned outward appearances. Veneer was as important as substance, perhaps more so.”
