And a very difficult girl. She'll become a remarkable woman, an icon of her century, but that's a long way off. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Not my fault, she thinks, dropping a bloody crowbar in the irrigation ditch after Daddy. She steals Momma's Ford and escapes to Depression-era San Francisco, where she fakes her way into work as a newspaper copy boy. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Everything's looking up. She's climbing the ladder at the paper, winning validation, skill, and connections with the artists and thinkers of her day.
