josh lyman and his receding hairline

Have picked up The Woman In White once again after a very long hiatus during the horror that was exams (yes, that is how I will be referring to it for the rest of my life). I have forgotten how good it is, even though it's taking me forever to get through this 600+ page book.

"There can be no doubt - though some strange perversity prevents me from seeing it myself - there can be no doubt that Laura's future husband is a very handsome man. Regular features form a personal advantage to begin with - and he has them. Bright brown eyes, either in man or woman, are a great attraction - and he has them. Even baldness, when it is only baldness over the forehead (as in his case), is rather becoming, than not, in a man, for it heightens the head and adds to the intelligence of the face."

Collins has perfectly captured with words my ineffable infatuation with Bradley Whitford (of West Wing, not Studio 60).
