Escapade - Charles Owen - Bog

The expectations of the middle classes are the target of this wickedly written volume of tales. A general stops at nothing to get a promotion, only to meet his match in his rival's wife. A couple fall in love at a drinks party yet consummating their desire proves more and more frustrating. And a man is asked to spy on a beautiful foreign agent - but things are not quite as they seem. Subtle wit and broad farce walk joyously hand in hand through Escapade.
