By filtering the story of her own husband's affair through others' stories, DeSalvo revels in the always-exciting fantasy of adultery and reels from its usually painful reality. While she recognizes the seduction of the Madame Bovary risk-all-for-passion story of adultery, she shows that it is not the only one. Everyone knows how dangerous it is to tell their adultery stories. Here, Louise DeSalvo risks all in the company of Edith Wharton, Virginia Woolf, Henry Miller, and Madame Recamier. This treatise is at once a memoir and a cultural study, a literary exploration and a survivor's manual. For anyone who has experienced adultery --from either side-- De Salvo offers a sexy, nonjudgemental, realistic vision of fidelity and marriage.
