Love and Friendship by Alison Lurie
'Emmy Turner's marriage to a hard-working and dullish lecturer at Convert College suffers from various tensions. Emmy has a highly sensual affair with a non-creating musician-in-residence, and her husband suspects everyone but the right man, going nearly insane with jealousy in the process...

Lurie is and really is, different. She writes with great elegance, as frostily clear as the climate she describes; and with sharp intelligence piercing through every sentence. She is very funny as well -- Francis Hope * Observer *
Awesomely good * Sunday Times *
