Review: Gripping Story
Rating: 5 out of 5

This short story about a troubled marriage works on different levels, like a Beethoven symphony, and stays with you long after you have finished it.  Melanie and Paul seem to have really serious relationship problems.  The dialogue is clean, witty and somehow desperately realistic, like a Tennessee Williams of the 21st century.  I did not expect it to end the way it did; the ending blew me away.  I'm looking forward to reading more from Wendy Young.
