About This Item
Winnipeg, MB: Turnstone Press, 1996. Soft cover. Very Good. INSCRIPTION FROM MARGARET SWEATMAN on title page; Clean, tight, unmarked; light wear to inside back corner; otherwise spine straight and uncreased; appears unread; Sam and Angie, husband and wife, life in a privileged world; a world of cocktail parties, large river-front houses, and expensive cars. They have no children Sam is a wealthy businessman and Angela is a lawyer, and their marriage seems a good one until Sam is betrayed by a trusted employee, and his import business begins to fade. When Angie takes the case of Joey, a young offender accused of the murder and rape of another lawyer, she loses herself in her work, convinced Joey is innocent. Sam's feelings quickly accelerate into anxiety, suspicion and jealousy, blurring the line between paranoia and reality. Their love collapses into surveillance, and their sexual relationship becomes a shocking act of violence. Sweatman's clean and elegant prose precisely portrays the politics of a relationship in decline, and the cold and ugly passion which exists just under the surface of Sam and Angie's upper class world - an architectural world of glass barriers devoid of real human contact.
