Having escaped from a desert, she lands in a swamp.While Conrad radiates positive energy, he is unable to tell Mollyor anyone who loves himthe truth. No longer the wronged wife, Molly now finds herself the Other Woman. She is sharing Conrad with Roberta, another refugee from marriagewith Conrad’s movements between the two of them disguised by his suspiciously frequent out-of-town engagements.Roberta either knows nothing or prefers to look the other way, but Molly’s maddening capacity for double vision takes over her mind. What saves her from herself is her well-developed sense of irony, which never fails heror the reader.
