Nancy meets Marcus at a party. He is untidy, nervous, shy: women
have never paid him any attention. But here is virgin clay from
which Nancy can mould her Adam. She marries him, and on their
wedding night Marcus realises he is as much her protege in sex as
in other fields. But soon he is confident that, under her guiding
hands, he had been transformed into a consummate lover; and he
begins to feel the urge to slip his leash. 'Elegant, funny and
erotic... a good showcase for [Brophy's] perceptions on life and
art, her wit and her dazzling prose.' Telegraph 'Sly and
sophisticated and written in a deceptively simple manner.' Kirkus
Reviews 'Brophy has the enviable knack of combining precision with
suggestiveness.' Saturday Review
