Spanning a hundred years of history from when Nijinsky danced \"The Afternoon of the Faun\" in Paris in 1912, through World Wars I and II, to very close to the present, Jennie keeps a diary, writes a play and a novella in her attempt to control her desperate, high-pitched emotions focused on a man she is uncontrollably drawn to and at the same time finds repugnant. A man who is one of the keepers and part of the legacy of Element's bad behavior.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eHahn, Susan:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \u003cb\u003eSusan Hahn\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of nine books of poetry, two produced plays and one previous novel.
