About This Book
No synopsis or comparison can convey the novel's lyric comedy or, indeed, its sinister power - sinister because of the strength of will Cyril exerts over his wife, his mistress, his wife's reluctant lover; lyric, since he is also a "sex-singer" in the land where music is the food of love.
