Ten couples live in Tarbox, a secluded town in New England. Well-off and in their mid-thirties, they form an exclusive, competitive circle. They ski, host parties, play word games... and engage in discreet sexual experimentation. Cautiously swapping partners, they perform their rituals under the watchful eye of their self-appointed master of ceremonies, Freddy Thorne.
But when Piet Hanema and Foxy Whitman begin an affair, they abandon caution and convenience. For once, the other supposedly unshockable couples are truly shaken—and Tarbox claims its first sacrificial victims.
John Updike’s probing, poetic portrayal of these entanglements and deviations reveals the life of a community with astonishing precision. In every sense, he offers an anatomy of a generation.
