> Society divorcees and scandalized people in transition, politicians from remote ridings, elderly widows, downwardly mobile sons of establishment families, mistresses, professional artists and musicians who needed to be in the city but could never raise enough for a down payment - these characters and archetypes form the mythology of cities. . .

I found this description very evocative, to the point that I was starting to imagine a story set in a building of these characters. I was very pleased to click on your profile and see that you're a writer, and are not letting that talent go to waste!
