In COUPLES, John Updike explores the psychosexual natures of a group of young middle-class marrieds in Tarbox, Massachusetts.
Against the background of general philandering and deceit, couples develop deep attachments punctuated by occasional frenzies of passion and intrigue.
Regarded as one of America's best authors, Updike, a Pulitzer Prize winner, writes with painful insight about the state of marital fidelity in the modern age.
X-rated for sex and language.
