“A t s m s i v, a l o b h t o h f, a s t r d m-s t.”
“A tall slim man stepped into view, a lock of blonde hair tumbling over his forehead, a smile that revealed dazzling movie-star teeth.”
Larry is established as attractive and glamorous.
“H w h, h e l d i h, a s l a h f.”
“He applauded her, his eyes looking deeply into hers, as she lay at his feet.”
Larry’s behaviour when he’s with Nicole is an important indicator of his attitude towards young girls.
“‘W t m?’ L LS a.”
“‘What’s the matter?’ Larry LaSalle asked.”
Here Larry is shown to be sensitive an generous.
“S y t.”
“Sweet young things.”
He doesn’t think of the victims as girls but as “things.”
“D t o s o m w a a t g t?”
“Does that one sin of mine wipe away all the good things?”
Larry doesn’t appear to accept the full extent of what he has done.
