Reviewed by Entre Nous
Interesting and well constructed novel which provoked discussion. Ideal book for a reading group drawing on male-female differing perceptions of moral issues within marriage.

Review by Ems Valley U3A
Easy to read if a bit mundane. Preferred the wife’s tale; her character was much better drawn than her husband’s.

Review by Everton Reading Group
A quaint story with greater interest in the wife’s tale than the husband’s. Well written but rather tedious in the “tale”.
