...diatribe here, a confessional secret there, a bilious distillation from atrabilious people. Andrea hates Annie because Daddy loved her more. Five marriages have not appeased her sense of loss. Out of vengeance or whim she has carried on an affair with Annie's fiance. Callously neglected by her late husband, Ruth fervently argues that loyalty and fidelity are above price.
