Modern women have a difficult time imagining such circumstances.

When I mentioned “disturbing,” I wasn’t just talking about the doctor/patient relationship, but at Lucy’s inability to do anything for herself initially…and then the drastic change. Or…was the manipulative quality that sublimated?

The melodrama reminded me of Thaw/White murder and Evelyn Nesbit for some reason.
