"Ode to an Orange" by Larry Woiwode took place in the winter of 1940s. It was "the winters of the forties" which I felt was very important in setting the background.

An ode to my sunglasses There is something about my golden aviator sunglasses that is more than sun protection‚ more than anybody else can ever imagine. Every time I put them on I instantly become happier. A lot of women around the world have the same pair‚ as they were mass-produced by the brand Guess‚ and so mine isn’t unique at all in that sense. Neither is my happiness triggered by a materialistic satisfaction by wearing a “brand”. I received them from a special person‚ when I
