Have you ever read D.H. Lawrence? In "The Sea and Sardinia" (I think
that is the title), one of his books about his travels through Italy
with his wife Frieda von Richthofen, he constantly refers to her as
"she", never by name. As an aside (my mind wanders off very easily),
whilst at Taormina in Sicily he wrote one of my favorite poems "The
Snake". It is very beautiful.

He later joined the RAF as an a/c two. Died in a motorbike crash.
Horribly mundane way to go for El Lawrence. of Arabia.

Yes, failed to make a corner riding a Rudge motorcycle. I used to be
reminded of this by a chap who owned what was apparently the only
Rudge in New England .
