Construction engineer Bartley Alexander is a troubled, middle-aged man torn between his cold American wife and an alluring mistress in London who has helped him recapture his youth and sense of freedom. A fascinating study of a man's growing awareness of the breach in his integrity, this book is essential reading for fans of this great American novelist.

From AudioFile
This novella is a charming period piece, a love story, and a fatalistic fable about a doomed love affair and the lives it destroys. Bartley Alexander''s accidental meeting with the Irish actress he loved as a young man seems full of promise but leads instead to dishonesty and betrayal. Flo Gibson''s rich, well-modulated voice brings depth and texture to this story. Hearing her is like sitting in the parlor listening to a well-loved and dramatically gifted aunt read a story. Her phrasing and timing are superb, and it''s clear she understands and appreciates Cather''s story. So will the listener. J.D.P.
