Graham was an historian: he was meant to be an expert on the past. But there were aspects of it, that couldn't be subdued, that simply carried on, lively and painful, as if they were the present. He minded very much indeed. This book presents a version of sexual jealousy and shows it to be not just living, but reasonable, ordinary, and dangerous.
