Seller's Description:
New York. 1987. Delacorte Press. 1st American Printing. Very Good in Dustjacket. 0385295936. 212 pages. hardcover. keywords: Literature England Women. FROM THE PUBLISHER-Veronica Smiles is the kind of Englishwoman for whom the word intrepid was coined. Heir to an explorer's tradition (her mother was the first of her gender to scale the Matterhorn, only to meet her Maker in the Himalayas; Veronica's grandmother, a Victorian gentlelady, died potholing somewhere in the Mendips), Veronica spent the first thirtyseven years of her life pursuing physical adventure-if only of a purely nonsexual nature. But in her chance encounter out there in the Sahara, Veronica experiences her long-overdue sexual awakening, for it is God among the wind-rippled dunes who first stirs up long-repressed feelings in virginal Veronica. In classic Rubens style, our heroine is torn between carnal love for Him and familial admiration lor Edward, her respectable wine-merchant husband. Veronica's confusion assumes metaphysical---as well as physical dimensions when she finds that she is pregnant: Is he father Edward, rendered sterile by the mumps at an early age? Or could it be the Other-Our Father-disguised as the Devil in plumber's clothing? inventory #9391.
