Trade Paperback. Condition: Good. No Stock Photos! We photograph every item. edge wear, taped corner of front cover; Temporarily abandoned by her overbearing husband amidst the chaos and decay of Los Angeles, Carla Verdi tries to run her home and bring up her son along traditional Italian lines. She finds solace in the friendship of Leo, a Catholic priest. 'Obedience', he teaches her, 'was the prime virtue taught in seminaries.' Thus armed with their private loyalties - he to his church, she to her marriage - they are swept towards temptation. 'A writer of stunning quality, a novelist of irony and compassion who observes her American scene with a refreshingly European detachment.' Daily Telegraph 'A novel of writhing ironies . . . a ruthless, penetrating and desolately funny book.' Guardian 'High-class, serious fun.' Sunday Telegraph.

Book
Condition: Near Fine. Upper-class Los Angeles, with its trendy morals and even more treacher ous hillsides, is no place for an Italian wife, even a modern one. Carla Verdi, separated from her domineering hus band, must cope with the ``phases'' of her 13-year-old son, the assaults of the weather, and the intricacies of he r friends' love lives. Until, suddenly, she has a love life of her own, and , with her husband's return, complicated deci sions to make herself. O'Faol ain plays with the meaning of the title, making it first ironic, then deadl y serious, and back again, as Carla decides where her life and allegiance m ust be placed after 15 years of marriage. Well-written, with a subtle, insi dious message. (O'Faolain also wrote Women in the Wall, No Country for Youn g Men, and Daughters of Passion ).
