Description: light edge wear to boards, some light edge wear and scuffing to dust jacket; ''This is the story of a man's erotic correspondence with a woman he briefly met while on vacation in Paris with his wife. More a novella, this slender tale of an affair in letters has the tentative, delicate texture of a sepia-toned French postcard. The reader feels somewhat like a voyeur as the correspondence becomes increasingly explicit and the experiences and desires of each writer are intimately detailed and explored. Will his wife find out? Does the husband want his wife to find out? Where will this story go? Suddenly, the man suffers a stroke and dies. The correspondence is revealed by a friend whose address the man used for receiving his mistress's mail. The deceased man's wife seeks a brief, civilized meeting with the writer/mistress and then the screen fades to black.'' -- Library Weekly
