Foreword
Nothing can be more painful for a woman than to have her love and sexuality taken for granted. A woman enters into a marriage relationship expecting, needing, and deserving a partner whose fond attentions and unfaltering appreciation of her feminine charms are sufficiently uplifting to make each day of the marriage more satisfying than the last. Admittedly an ideal, and perhaps unrealistically perfect marriage situation, the afore mentioned expectations are nevertheless held. When these deeply felt desires and expectations are not lived up to, when the marriage bonds tighten and become shackles, as they sometimes do, only disaster, both emotional and connubial, can result.
Nothing produces connubial disaster more certainly than excessive alcoholism, especially when it leads to the deterioration of one member's sexuality. Alcoholism has a tendency to destroy sensuality in the victim, resulting in a coarseness and an unfeeling attitude in one partner that either produces in the other partner a like attitude or drives that partner away. In either case the marriage is ruined. The emotional strain of such a deteriorating marriage can be enough to produce in either or both partners personality changes, which, although they may be only temporary, may lead to sexual behavior that is radically different from that which characterized the partner's previous sexual activity.
A woman of extremely strong sexual and emotional drives and desires, confronted with the break-up of what she considered to be the perfect marriage, is also confronted with the dismaying realization that her sex life will have to change radically. No longer able to share her body wit her husband she must seek other outlets for hi pent-up sexual energies. Her experience with her husband, if that experience has included beating suffered by her during his drunkenness, might very easily change her natural sexual proclivities directing her toward areas of sexual activity heretofore considered taboo.
The story you are about to read concerns such i woman and the new areas of sexual activity she is forced to investigate. Darlene Miller is the victim of alcoholism, not her own disease but the disease-of her husband Sam, whose love and attention she valued highly, but whose love and attention withered under the cruel influence of alcohol. She learns to fear and loathe men, constantly reminded of the suffering and heartache she encountered during the deterioration of her marriage. Left with three sons and considerable sexual energy, her attentions turn slowly toward her boys as sexual Partners. She craves their innocence, their gentleness, their willingness to submit to her tutelage. In their arms she believes she can find the kind of attention she has lacked for so long. But 'the sense of taboo involved in incestuous relationships makes it difficult for her to put her desires into play but come into play they do.
