Truth and Consequences by Alison Lurie
Two couples, both alike in circumstance, in fair fictional Corinth, where we lay our scene...
Alison Lurie's 's first couple, Jane and Alan Mackenzie, who, until recently have been congratulating themselves on how well everything is going; how much they are in love, how handsome their house, how rich their garden, how good the sex, how happy at work and how respected in the community. Jane is an administrator at the university and Alan is a professor who has a passion for Victorian architecture. A slow tragedy unfolds when Alan injures his back playing volleyball and falls victim to chronic and debilitating pain. As the pain increases his personality dissolves and Jane is forced into a caretaking role for a man who was the epitome of hardy male academic resourcefulness and vigor. As the book opens, Jane sees her cramped stooped husband struggling up the driveway and doesn't recognize him at all. There is resentment all around. The second couple is the famous and difficult poetess Delia Delaney and her mate and general dogs body Henry Hull. Delia has migraines but what really seems more debilitating is her narcissistic and divaish personality. She is as self-involved as she is charming and entices those around her to do her bidding, be it answer her fan mail or weasel out of her contract as Visiting Fellow at the University. Henry, a freelance editor, really just takes care of demanding Delia.

We can lie in the language of dress or try to tell the truth; but unless we are naked and bald, it is impossible to be silent.

    on the Chronicles of Narnia at the Guardian Brideshead Revisited ): the Turkish Delight (which I imagined as being something like the buttery shortbread my mother made for dinner parties); the cordial Lucy is given by Aslan; the green and yellow rings like boiled sweets that Diggory's uncle has in The Magician's Nephew ; the sherbets of The Horse and His Boy . But though there are all sorts of reasons I found them magically captivating, it also seems to me that they were painful (in a good way, I'm not saying this critically) in their moralizing about choices and ethics and so on: I was the kind of child who couldn't read about Edmund betraying his friends (and seriously, that novel offers a better depiction of the psychology of addiction than almost anything else I can think of) or about Jill forgetting to say the lines that Aslan has asked her to memorize without getting a serious knot in my stomach. In fact it's making me anxious just thinking about it.
    Two good literary reflections on the Narnia stories: Anne Fadiman's introduction to the essay collection Rereadings: Seventeen Writers Revisit Books They Love ; and the amazing story called "The Problem of Susan" written by Neil Gaiman and published in the 2004 anthology Flights Posted by Jenny Davidson at 9:38 PM

    Alison Lurie Biography Children's Collections Novels Nonfiction ALISON LURIE "One of this country's most able and witty novelists."
    The New York Times Book Review
    "One can read Lurie as one might read Jane Austen,
    with continual delight"
    Joyce Carol Oates An excerpt from the novel "The Last Resort" At three A.M. on a windy late-November night, Jenny Walker woke in her historic house in an historic New England town, and sensed from the slope of the mattress and the chill of the flowered percale sheets that Wilkie Walker, the world-famous writer and naturalist, was not in bed beside her.
    Often now Jenny woke to this absence. The first time, after lying half awake for twenty minutes, she tiptoed downstairs and found her husband sitting in the kitchen with a mug of tea. Wilkie smiled briefly and replied to her questions that of course he was all right, that everything was all right. "Go back to bed, darling," he told her, and Jenny followed his instructions, just as she had done for a quarter century.

    Sara Krulwich/ The New York Times Alison Lurie REVIEWS OF ALISON LURIE'S EARLIER BOOKS:
  • Love and Friendship
    "[T]he over-all structure of the novel lacks the grace and strength of its many well-handled episodes. . . . Nevertheless, Miss Lurie does make one wonder what the future holds for her essentially unsympathetic characters. That is a sure sign of her artistry."
  • The Nowhere City
    "Los Angeles, of course, is the setting for Alison Lurie's novel 'The Nowhere City' but Miss Lurie's excellent book might just as well be called 'The Nowhere Country,' because it distills the prevailing American social climate, of which L. A. is only the purest essence."
  • Imaginary Friends
    "One of the more gifted novelists around today, Alison Lurie is a specialist in the transmigration of personality. . . . [a] balefully funny put-down of behavioral 'science.'"

    Fashion is a language, says Alison Lurie in this 1981 interview with Don Swaim. Novelist, academic, and Pulitzer Prize winner, Alison Lurie talks about her book, The Language of Clothes .
