Some early excerpts from Devil in a Blue Dress
By Bill Clinton.
from page 7:
. . . her pouting red lips and teased-up hair were all I could make out in the dim Arkansas moonlight. "So, little Billy Clinton," she purred, "are you going to make anything of yourself?"
I couldn't see in the darkness, but I knew she was smiling. "Yes'm," I gulped, shivering in the cool of an autumn night, "I reckon if'n I kin study hard and work hard, I kin mebbe git on out of Hope, mebbe get me t'Oxford or sumpin'."
Now she laughed-a full, deep, throaty laugh-and I saw the flash of her white teeth and the smooth alabaster skin of her neck in silhouette. She produced a silver cigarette case, snapped it open with a flourish, took out a long cigarette, lit it with her silver lighter, then took a deep drag.
Years later, when I found out that she had died of lung cancer, I made it my mission as governor and, later, as president, to fight Big Tobacco. But then, in the Arkansas twilight, all I could think about was her laugh, her smile, her shimmering blue dress.
