    About this ebook

    In these highly charged and imaginative short stories, Lucy Cavendish displays formidable literary skill at conveying female passion. In 'Big Black Dog', the family pet represents a guilty conscience (and more) as the protagonist conducts an affair under her husband's nose. In 'Lamu', a woman hoping to start a family with her husband gets carried away by the heat of Africa and worries about the watchful gaze of a small boy. In 'Take It', a woman is stifled by the atmosphere of her wealthy home in Argentina and finds release with Angelo, her servant's attractive young nephew, who handles the polo ponies so well. In 'La Luna', a woman displays a fierce and deadly passion for any man attracted to her. Each story has a surprising twist; once read it will never be forgotten.
