Opis

The introduction of the pill in the 1960s opened a new chapter of human sexuality, which for many was the most liberating factor in their lives. For others, however, it created conflicts as with Edie Carter, a young southern virgin who finds it problematic to enter the new era because of her strict, small-town upbringing. A conventional marriage to the handsomest guy in her senior class appears to solve her inner conflict... at first. Her story includes a grand tour of Europe where she enjoys a romantic relationship with a striking young Frenchman. Back in the USA, she spends a season in summer stock where she meets the famous star of a popular soap opera who handily seduces her. Later in the Big Apple, hoping for a break in show business, she scratches out a living that provides only a tenuous existence; she gradually enters a permissive way of life, a process facilitated by her youthful good looks that attract all sorts of men. But her moral training is not easily put aside, and her life is never without internal struggles... particularly when an opportunity of ultimate revenge presents itself.
