'A brilliant and seemingly effortless accomplishment...steady
uninterrupted delight' Sunday Telegraph Faculty wife Emily
Stockwell Turner is beautiful, rich, and principled. However, five
years in a marriage devoid of passion is enough to propel Emmy,
despite her principles, into an affair with a silver-tongued
self-confessed libertine. Her husband, a dull, hard-working
lecturer, suspecting everyone but the right man, sends himself half
mad with jealousy. The shocking, unforeseen consequences of their
affair shatter Emmy's most cherished delusions about friendship,
romance, and the ties that bind. 'Lurie is and really is,
different. She writes with great elegance, as frostily clear as the
climate she describes; and with sharp intelligence piercing through
every sentence. She is very funny as well' Observer
