Taking Shelter
註釋"Beth is intrigued by the witty and charming Miles, but perplexed by his reluctance to make love to her. When she meets Marcus - the very antithesis of Miles - they embark on a passionate and uneasy relationship. Surrounding Beth are Kyrie, her brash, sexually adventurous cousin; Nita, Marcus's mother, mourning the defection of her man; and Juliet, who continually ponders her own dreams while making everyone else's come true. "Here are people drawn together in their tentative quests for permanence, tenderness and love in an era when there are no rules about the age, gender, or faithfulness of lovers. Their story is told with the keen perception, the wit, and emotional honesty that characterise all of Jessica Anderson's work." --cover.
