This was a very insightful and well written look at the ramifications of adultry in a marriage.  The husband/father, who was a Senator, had a history of affairs and the wife/mother, was a typical society politician wife who enjoyed all the perks & status of her successful and powerful spouse.  She lived her life in denial of any wrong doing on the husband's part and blamed the other women for seducing him!  A view I had difficulty understanding yet know exists.  Basically, this affair destroys his political career, the life they have known and causes emotional and relationship issues among the two daughters.  It really did show the devasting effect for the entire family of one member's selfishness.  Regardless of your marital status or relationship history, I think it is a good read and could provide some guide of what not to do and how not to excuse bad behavior.  It portrays both the short and long term damage within the family unit.
