New Toulouse

Dear Madam,

I have just read the letter from Dr G Avalon and am extremely angry: it is little better than a thinly veiled attack on me. At no time did I suggest that she was responsible for turning citizens into meat pies. I tentatively identified another person as the culprit, a former boarding-house keeper.

I demand an apology and free medical treatment for life.

Yours disgustedly,

Francesca Alva
