Like a teenager, C. has fallen hopelessly in love, with a visitor from the Continent. I didn’t see it coming. And the worst thing is that I’m not sure it’s a temporary infatuation that will soon pass. It’s taken a firm hold on her affections. Only time will tell whether everything will end in tears. […]

When they get towards the end of their courses most undergraduates prove themselves in the private silence of the exam hall. Art students are different.
