Rhoda, my mothers' sister, was the crazy one, and had the most horrible reputation, and she could talk the ear off anyone willing to listen.
Oh the stories she could tell! And the way she could tell them!!
She had been admitted several times to the asylum in Evanston, only to return crazier than ever. It wasn't her fault. Every significant person in her life allowed and encouraged her behavior, so why is this a problem? It's not a problem to her, and maybe that is the problem...
"She is a lot of company," an Indian gal friend of hers told me once, and this gal was so right.
Rhodas' mind is so awesomely powerful that she created the world she lived in and rightly deserves.
She was also a witch.
