Girl, aging girl, is haunted by own nothingness and devours views from windows (stories, movies, overheard talk and sights in the street, pictures in newspapers, etc.) with continuous feeling she is 'just about', miraculously, to come into her own her own life.

When pain is over, the remembrance of it often becomes a pleasure. One does not love a place the less for having suffered in it, unless it has been all suffering.
