As if on cue, AOC readers know that we are celebrating roses this weekend, taking one of our perennial top 100 editorials and pushing it into the Reader Top 5.
Ironically, this editorial is the topic of conversation addressed to the world’s top rose grower. Clearly, the universe is on our side in this prospective discussion.

Fight for Sensual Values
Abbey Lee Kershaw | Sebastian Kim | Numero 126 ‘Heroines’ AOC Private Studio
At AOC, Abbey Lee here represents our modern-day Joan of Arc, ready to lead Smart Sensuality women — and the men who love us — into battle for new values in our unsustainable, superficial world.
During the five months of siege before the arrival of Joan of Arc, the defenders of Orléans had attempted only one aggressive move and that had ended in disaster. On 4 May the French attacked and captured the outlying fortress of Saint Loup, which she followed on 5 May with a march to a second fortress called Saint Jean le Blanc, which was found deserted. The next day she opposed Jean d’Orleans at a war council where she demanded another assault on the enemy. D’Orleans ordered the city gates locked to prevent another battle, but she summoned the townsmen and common soldiers and forced the mayor to unlock a gate. With the aid of only one captain she rode out and captured the fortress of Saint Augustins. That evening she learned she had been excluded from a war council where the leaders had decided to wait for reinforcements before acting again. Disregarding this decision, she insisted on attacking the main English stronghold called “les Tourelles” on 7 May. Contemporaries acknowledged her as the heroine of the engagement after she was wounded in the neck by an arrow but returned to lead the final charge.” via Wiki
