The honeymoon death by drowning of Sheila Moran in the company of
her husband for which there is no immediate forthcoming explanation
is the intriguing opening of "Philly Moran." Mysterious
circumstances surround the incident while the two are sail-ing off
the coast of Kusadasi, Turkey. But the unexplained event is merely
the subtext of a tragic love story between Sheila, a socially
prominent golden girl, and her husband Philly, a high school
dropout suitor, a young man of much charm, sexual attractiveness
and high ambition who achieves a multi-millionaire status before
obtaining the object of his affection. The novel deals essentially
with the fate of these two people, a man of humble origin
determined to succeed, and a privileged woman's effort to achieve
recog-nition on her own terms. The mystery of Sheila Moran's death
is ultimately uncovered in the last chapter, and the resultant
consequences are moving and tragic for both.
