Foreword
One of mankind's most basic, most important institutions is marriage.
Yet today, at least in the United States, matrimony is crisis-ridden at best, seemingly in a state of near-collapse at worse. The malaise chiefly affects couples in their late twenties and early thirties, products of the post-World War II baby boom, growing up during the Korean War and the dozen years of involvement in Vietnam, their disintegrating relationship a reflection of unstable times.
THE HOTTEST HOUSEWIFE is the story of one couple, Daisy and Roger Larkin, who are young, attractive and happy to all outward appearances, yet are unable to communicate at the most basic level. As a result, Daisy is driven to seek a false kind of love in the arms of strangers, degrading herself and yet reveling in that very degradation, straining her shaky marital relationship to the breaking point.
Daisy and Roger-products of an uncaring society, their story is a portrayal of an affliction that plagues many American marriages.
