Wedlock

"Langguth has brilliantly described what many sensed in the sixties: the inadequacy of the state of wedlock...The most evident of Langguth's talents is his control as a writer. It is complete. And it prepares us for the intelligence and perception displayed on every page. Reading this novelist is a delightful experience."--Russell W. Schoch, Jr., Los Angeles Times.
