from the back:
"Dinah, Willie, and Susan have long outlived the scandal associated with their ten year-old menage-a-trois. Strange as it looks on the outside, each person has needs it takes the other two to satisfy. Dinah, an avant-gard e composer, treasures her independence. Yet it takes Willie's kindness and Susan's unique fire to sustain her. Willie, a Southern gentleman with a social conscience, is a left-wing sculptor in a right-wing age. And Susan, his wife, is a fabric designer who craves glamour, wealth, and the attentions of those fickle 'summer people' who visit every year.
"Then one summer, the balance shifts. Passions are tested, honesty is forsaken, and the trio must face the changes brought by their beautiful visitors."
