right its also funny that she was able to write herself basically but still have it land as deliberate and careful for an audience to read... could not imagine excavating the self so deliberately like that..... the similarities btwn author and character can only happen accidentally TO ME, otherwise it's too painful. but she clearly likes Going Creazey and high camp so

> therese likes other women
THAT WAS SO GOOD.... it was so artful how its like.... their rl IS so weird and obsessive and intense, but letting therese free to really process and decide Oh Yes I also just am gay..... idk to me i feel the one exception/we're so codependent ill go gay for you plots that we often see (esp in fic..) are fun bc of the intensity but it always rubbed me the wrong way. highsmith figured out how to have the best of both worlds a BILLION YEARS AGO!!
