Stephanie Brown offers a hint of something curiously ominous through the sly epigraph she chooses from Henry James--The amount of thought they give to their clothing, the people who are afraid of looking frivolous!

What the story really is is sometimes what it seems but with a twist; and it is sometimes so ironically envisioned you would hardly believe this was California. These poems are indeed allegorical, but this is a thoroughly modern allegory dealing with a frighteningly up-to-date set of situations.
