Oxbridge Blues
Summary
FOR MOST OF THEM THE GLITTERING PRIZES HAVE TARNISHEDStylish, erotic and cruel, Frederic Raphael s sparkling collection of stories slices to the heart of a certain milieu, exposing those who cling to its affluent surfaces but who have lost the art of loving.Uneasy and restless, the world they inhabit depends on treachery for survival and on infidelity to sharpen the appetite - a world where social, sexual and financial jealousies can snap the brittle bonds of affection and where the past seems a foreign countryFrederic Raphael s watchful and witty pen shocks and provokes - but always tells the truth.
