CHARLES COLOMBO: Thoughts on Love

Charles Colombo (Thoughts on Love), strictly speaking, is not an autobiographical novel, and yet in the novel, F. Davis attempts to entwine much of the anatomy of her real life into a devious mosaic of fiction. Most of the following characters in the novel are based on people who actually exist in Davis' life; mostly, in every aspect, she illustrates them as mythical representations of her inner thoughts about society, dreams, and intuition, as they (the characters) influenced Charles Colombo, a maturing, sensitive young artist.
