Behind the outward serenity and closed doors of middle-class suburban homes, we find people tormented by the same problems that have afflicted men and women throughout the ages.
While American’s today are leading “the good life,” enjoying material comforts unheard of in other countries, people may still find themselves in an emotional turmoil, reinforced by the increasing alienation of our life-style.
Terry Murphy is a typical suburban housewife. She is surrounded by material comforts. Yet her boredom and her husband’s increasing neglect lead her into acts which she never dreamed she was capable of. With each day she finds herself set more irretrievably upon a path from which there is no turning back.
THE WIFE GOES DOWN is a novel about this woman-a novel about the problems that may confront any woman when she makes the fateful decision to ignore society’s prohibitions.
“Ed, honey,” Terry Murphy cooed, “have you noticed anything different about me tonight?”
The beautiful blonde housewife had sneaked up beside her husband as he watched TV. Tall and stacked, Terry was wearing a filmy see-through blue negligee that left nothing to the imagination. Her golden hair fell almost to her waist. She knew she looked outrageously sexy.
“Huh?” Ed said, his eyes glued to the tube.
“Take a look, babe,” Terry said. “I think you’ll like my outfit.”
“Just a second,” Ed grunted. “A commercial’s coming up.”
Terry gritted her teeth. It really galled her that Ed was more interested in TV than in her. Sure, they’d been married for six years now, and the first excitement was gone, but had Ed totally forgotten about sex?
