Which is to say, Barabara Mertz is wearing on me. Ramses is a psychopath. ('My best friend is looking at The Woman I Love! I want to tear his heart out!') Nefret might as well be a Japanese heroine. '(We spent the night together and next day I saw him looking at another woman, oh woe alas it is All Over, I must run away and immediately latch on to someone else he loves me no more!')
