Summary
A pretty girl about 20 years old sits painting her toenails. In her slightly mad fashion, she explains human existence through her intense study of birds. Help also comes from the Venerable Bede and the other inhabitants of Sarcey's Palace, a house of ill repute in Terre Haute. This compelling play explains the Zen of toenail painting and the infinite compassion of God. This character also appears in Nigro's Terre Haute.

Published in Genesis & Other Plays.
