The year is 1939, Rufus, your husband of 3 years, softly lights a cigar. It is only 11:30, though he has been stressed about his new book as the one he published not less than a year ago is selling fast and the people want more. You and your husband live a comfortable life in Chicago, you two live in a beautiful brownstone home in a very diverse community. He sits in his at home office on the first floor of the two story home.
