Sally is blonde, expensively dressed and married to Richard. He is the generous husband, making the kind of drunken compromise a man has to make when he is married to a desirable woman. Jerry met his wife Ruth at art school and for all their married lives, Jerry and Sally have been lovers.

Updike's eighth novel, subtitled "A Romance" because, he says, "People don't act like that any more," centers on the love affair of a married couple in the Connecticut of 1962. Unfortunately, this is a couple whose members are married to other people. Suburban infidelity is familiar territory by now, but nobody knows it as well as Updike, and the book is written with the author's characteristic poetic sensibility and sly wit.
