The Arrangement

The Arrangement

To survive in this world, you've got to come to an accommodation, a compromise - an arrangement. For sexual and emotional survival, you need a marriage. For economic survival, you need a job, a career, success.<br /><br />This is the stunning, unforgettable story of one man crashing out of his arrangement. Eddie Anderson, smothering behind the mask of "the man who has everything," a dynamic executive, a brilliant writer, married to loving patient Florence, obsessed by exciting and beautiful Gwen, explodes his arrangement. It's a devastating story. It just might jolt you out of your arrangement...<br /><br />"An exuberant and gutsy celebration of life... Superbly earthy in its treatment of love and sex, nicely offset by a prevailing mood of tenderness."<br />- Publisher's Weekly<br /><br />"For all its shock value (and its sex is frequent and specific), this is a novel you will gulp down and remember."<br />- John Barkham, Saturday Review Syndicate<br /><br />"It is impossible, in a short space, to give a work so rich, complex and subtle, its due; here is one of the finest novels out for a long time."<br />- The New Republic<br /><br />"Chock-full of action, sex, punchy set-pieces... rollicking zest... nice, subtle surprises of observation."<br />- Eliot Fremont-Smith, The New York Times
