gail (USA: WI) (2008/06/02): The main story in this book is called, "The Princess With The Golden Hair." It is the story that caused John Updike to write in the Afterword (included in this volume)"It remains a work of exemplary merit, still the most intelligent attempt by an American male to dramatizes sexual behavior as a function of, rather than a suspension of, personality." It is a racy read that tells the tale of a man who fantasizes, fixates and is frustrated by his desire and sexual experiences with women.
