Markel's LOSS OF A TEARDROP DIAMOND by Williams

This is a flood story, not the end of the world, nor the beginning.

Elements of the old South might heartily approve such an objective correlative as teardrop diamonds as representing what they might perceive as their tragic refinement. But Tennessee knows the full story and there is savagery amid the refinement in the ballroom scene.

As for the love story, it is smoldering.
