• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The 1970s. Bruce takes over a financial consultancy firm founded by his father, while student Marisa inherits property. Love, lust and money drive them both, until their relationship ends, with Bruce committed to commerce and Marisa setting off in search of social justice.

Twenty-five years after an intense and bad-tempered affair, a chance entry in one of Bruce's business listings shows that Marisa is now boss of the Rae Agency a media PR concern. Bruce, as he recollects their partnership, is torn between his staid if harmonious family life, and renewing contact with Marisa. Finally, he does commit to a course of action, but must face the truth of not having grasped the widening cultural and social separation their two different views of the world have wrought over the intervening quarter century.
