Else poisoned her husband as a token of her love for Erika. Alone in her prison cell Else relives who and what had brought her there - Erika

and their secret language, Erika's enabling mother, Else's jealous mother in-law, her abusive husband and his appalling secret, the words of

oppression.

"Elsechickgorgeousyou you are like a blank white sheet of paper on which I am the Word. You are like the nothingness that I first efface because I

have Words to put into the emptiness. Because I am the Word so-to-say."
