She looked too amazed by life to be English. Her curls were too curly. Her lips were too big. Her teeth too white and even, like one big tooth arc of tooth with regular vertical markings. And her breasts had too much elevation and attack to be English. Had Jane Austen's heroines had breasts like these they would not have worried about ending up without a husband.
H. Jacobson, The Finckler Question (2010), 83
