内容简介 Over the years, Alison Lurie has earned a devoted readership for her satiric wit and storytelling acumen. With Truth and Consequences, described by the New Yorker as "a comedy of adultery with a comedy of academia thrown in," Lurie returns with a modern social satire that recalls the best of David Lodge and Mary McCarthy as well as her own popular university novels The War Between the Tates and Foreign Affairs.
作者简介 Alison Lurie is the author of many novels, including The War Between the Tates and Foreign Affairs (winner of the Pulitzer Prize). She teaches writing, folklore, and literature at Cornell University.
