Trying Hard to Hear You
Teen novels really had heart in the seventies. I don't agree with everything, and I don't love Jeff, but I do love Camilla, who asks the questions I wouldn't dare to. This book rings true.
There should be more words for "love" in the English language. We use this one word to mean much too much. For example, there's this exchange, as close as I can remember it:
Jeff: "I just have to be with someone I love and respect."
Camilla: "Why can't you love and respect a girl, Jeff?"
Jeff: "Because it just doesn't do it for me."
Oooh. Wrong answer, buddy. He should love and respect Camilla, as they've been friends forever. But does he? I don't know, because "love" could mean several things in this context. I know it means he could never be romantically involved with a girl, but it still feels hurtful to think he could never love and respect any girl in any way. This is why I'm not so pleased with Jeff. Camilla cares about him more than he cares about her, I think. It's not right. Cue Aretha.
Also, he doesn't defend her from his bitch of a mother. And he never does really apologize for betraying her and lying to her.
