À propos de ce contenu audio
Tom and Nedith have been married for 30 years, but their marriage is one of convenience and finances. Their 22-year-old son, Peter, has recently split from his wife after less than a year. Three more couples are experiencing the throes of middle-class disaffection. Times are changing, the generation gap is widening, and the stage is set for a stormy weekend for these five couples.
Like John Updike's Rabbit novels and Mary McCarthy's The Group, Maritta Wolff's Sudden Rain distills a particular time and place, in this case, Los Angeles in the early 1970s. Each character springs vividly to life; due to unrest, revelation, and disaster, all are compelled to reconsider the choices they've made. Riveting and resonant, this long-lost tour de force is a masterpiece of emotion and keen observation.
