There was a large tray of buffalo chicken
wings on a marble coffee table
beside a silver candle holder with pink candles
in it. Uncle Roger was eating chicken wings,
one after another,
putting the bones in a small pile beside some
books about Michelangelo, VanGogh and Rembrandt.
He held up a bone as Louise walked by.
"Does this remind you of anything?" he asked.
