Barnes's novel about a mild-mannered historian, Graham Hendrick, who becomes obsessed with his wife's appearance from her earlier years in a low-budget film (which Graham considers "adultery") is a tautly plotted and fiendishly suspenseful application of the uncertainty principle to the domain of Eros.

"Few will be able to resist its easy humor and almost insidious readability."--The New York Times Book Review
