The late sixties and early seventies in America spawned all manner
of idealistic dreams through which young people thought they could
re-invent the notion of the modern. These three stories investigate
the ways that established institutions at first allured, and then
later deluded, the reluctantly willing protagonist Jack Lindsay. We
see the virtuous earnestness of the young teacher waylaid by the
shrewd encroachments of his own desire; the continued bending of
his sexual morality to pursue the attractions of opulent living and
haute couture; and, finally, the drowning of a young couple's
aspirations in the ocean of their own excessive carnality. The
voice that tells these stories is sparse, detached, cynical, and
destined to learn little from failure.
