Well, he's a certain type of character, Bole. A different sort than she's experienced before in this sort of way. I must say I was a bit surprised she didn't choose one of the visiting fellows, but if you look at it from another angle, it makes good sense. The Ball is a one of a kind event. Bole needn't expect she's any interest in him beyond it, which makes it perfectly grand as a trial. And, of course, if he impresses her, she might decide to see him again. But she won't be obliged if she's not interested.
I mean to say, I've asked Margaux Durand for the same sort of reason: she's provincial, from the Dordogne, and her father's in trade. Well, he's a glass-crafter. In any case, talking with her expands my range, you see?
Daphs and I think it important to sample what the world has to offer, rather than always sticking with what's well-known and comfortable. And this year is going to be full of opportunities to stretch ourselves a bit.
