AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'The cuckold is a young university lecturer whose academic career is headed for brilliant success as surely as his marital relationship with a lovely, sexual wife is headed for disaster. What makes for comedy is first the husband's inversion of his academic and marital duties and finally their equation in a sophisticated battle of the sexes.'
