Washington policymakers seemed willing to take Kama's assurances at face value for the time being; their optimism was shared by few analysts in Western Europe. Said a skeptical West German Foreign Ministry expert: "What we saw [in the accords] was a tactical retreat by the government. Warsaw needed to fend off the danger of Soviet invasion and get the workers back to their jobs. Now the clawing back of what was given on paper begins." West German Chancellor Helmut Schmidt and French President Valéry Giscard d'Estaing, moreover, had special reason for gloom: both...

Precisely what the change meant for the country, and for the victory the workers believed they had won, remained to be seen.

...what should the American woman do with her new confidence and convictions? Marabel's answer, which her critics regard as deceptive and manipulative, combines the exhortations of the fundamentalist prayer meeting with the theatrical techniques of the Kama Sutra. Says she: "A Total Woman caters to her man's special quirks, whether it be in salads, sex or sports." For example: "Tonight, after the children are in bed, place a lighted candle on the floor and seduce him under the dining room table." A Total Woman might also try proposing sex in the hammock-even if there...

...anything he has attempted since coming out of retirement last year. As for Haydee - perhaps ballet's reigning actress-dancer - her Gertrude was a startlingly erotic embodiment of lust. Seeing her wrapped sensuously about Baryshnikov, one can believe that some of the most startling love positions in the Kama Sutra are, after all, humanly possible...
