Morality Tale is a novel about the triangular complications of a
modern marriage and the comedy that flows from them. When the
elusive but exciting Richard (an envelope salesman with a nice
layperson's line in Zen philosophies) meets this novel's narrator,
he offers her a friendly escape from her own daunting domestic
life. Burdened by her husband's ongoing negotiations with his angry
ex-wife, the strains of looking after two stepchildren, and the
lingering ghost of her own past betrayals, she finds that the life
of a "second marryer" leaves much to be desired. As her friendship
develops with Richard, so grows the shadow cast over her marriage
by his presence, and when they make a late, illicit bay crossing
together on a ferryboat, the story gathers momentum under
California's Mount Tamalpais. There, in the fabled Golden State,
Sylvia Brownrigg shows how even a layperson's Zen can lead to some
important revelations about the need to look forward, not back.
Told with unwavering honesty and wit, Morality Tale explores what
it means to be married a second time around--and the crucial
universal truth that change is often the key to staying together.
