Metropolitan - Travel Aspirations and Financial Considerations
Tom Townsend:
What can you study in France that you can't study here?
Audrey Rouget:
French. Actually, I was thinking of coming back when this semester ends.
Tom Townsend:
I was thinking of going over. Not necessarily to Grenoble, but to France and Italy... though my resources are limited.
Audrey Rouget:
There are some awfully cheap airfares these days during the winter season. It seems a shame not to take advantage of them.
Tom Townsend:
That's how I feel.
Audrey Rouget:
Do you really think I'm flat-chested?
Tom Townsend:
I haven't really thought about it. Well, I shouldn't say that. The thing is, you look great... and that's what's important. You don't want to overdo it.

Metropolitan - Preference for Literary Criticism Over Fiction
Audrey Rouget: [[Jane Austen]
What ] novels have you read?
Tom Townsend:
None. I don't read novels. I prefer good literary criticism. That way you get both the novelists ideas as well as the critics thinking. With fiction I can never forget that none of it really happened, that it's all just made up by the author.
