Abstract
The first women are apparently recruited at random. Yet once assembled, certain outlines in the group can be observed, an organization which, if emphasized, could become a style. The madam is now looking for the women still needed, not just any women, but only those who fill in the gaps defined by the others. It is now possible to discern the sort of brothel in the making and even what kind of clientele it might attract. Like a book of stories or poems, or even a novel.
