Trade Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First Edition. From Introduction: " These ten stories of infidelity are set in bedrooms, town, cities, the world over. They range from a Perverse Writers' Conference in Boston to strange places such as Gary, Indiana's 'Land's End' which seethes with fantasy like a witch's cauldron. There's Krakow in the late 1960s, in a satirical story of nationalist ferment and sexual freedom, and nineteenth century colonial Hobart, where a true tale gives an unexpected twist to jilted romance. And there's Frankfurt, Florence, London, Buenos Aires. Infidelity need not be of the sexual kind. It has many faces. Some of the stories echo the distant past in which feudal loyalty to a master or a creed embraced the dialectic of the oath and its renunciation. These stories extend the idea of infidelity into the political and cultural arena." Authors include the editor of the book, Marsha Rowe, Scott Bradfield, Jane DeLynn, Alison Fell, David Widgery, Penelope Fitzgerald, Nina Fitzpatrick, Gary Indiana, Penelope Lively, and Colm Toibin.
