Staging Death - 2
As an actress, Vena has known fame and fortune but lost both. These days she has to work for her living in far more prosaic ways: she has at least progressed from cleaning other people's lavatories to doing interior decorating projects, and also to showing potential buyers round properties her millionaire estate agent brother is trying to sell. Actually I felt very sorry for her, spending all her time working in and around houses she could never now dream of affording: I have a mental image of her as a child with its nose pressed up against an old-fashioned toyshop window.
Me, sorry for an estate agent? OK, it's very unlikely. But then, your average estate agent doesn't encounter the problems that suddenly beset Vena.
