"When Lily marries she's going to marry a man who can give her everything." Blowsy, warm-blooded Molly Bowser was determined that her daughter Lily would make a safe, respectable marriage before she was overtaken by the same fate that Molly's good looks and lusty animal spirits had attracted. So she outlined a relentless campaign to get a man for Lily, and when it showed signs of bogging down, she fortified herself with vitamin shots and red wine, and started all over again.

Erskine Preston Caldwell was an American author.
