An artist is invited
by his girlfriend to visit her parents in the provinces and, failing to
get on
with her father, duly finds himself inviting her mother to his London studio where,
to his shame, he allows himself to be seduced by her whilst apparently
teaching
her to meditate. Thereafter things go
from bad to worse for Matthew Pearce, not to mention his girlfriend's
mother,
whose tetchy and ailing husband has discovered what he believes to be
concrete
evidence of her infidelity. Yet Deirdre
Evans is determined to capitalize on Matthew's previous hospitality,
just as
the latter is having serious doubts not only about her but,
thanks in
part to their affair, about his relationship with her daughter,
Gwendolyn, as
well! Then, one evening, a female
acquaintance of Gwen's turns up at his place and, before long, she
precipitates
him into a new and more passionate affair - in fact, the kind of affair
he had
been hoping for all along! So now it
seems he can dispense with both Gwen and her mother and take up with
Linda instead
- provided, however, that she can secure a divorce from her husband on
grounds
of incompatibility. For Linda Daniels is
also a married woman and, like Mrs Evans, the man to whom she is
married proves
himself to be no friend of Matthew Pearce!
Could that be the main motive for Pearce's willingness,
bordering on
recklessness, to enter into affairs with both women?
The reader is left to decide this and so much
else for himself in what is, by any account, an ironic commentary on
human
relationships and their social and ideological interactions! - A
Centretruths
editorial.
