Summary
Jacob Duff has grown tired of his adoring wife Régina. Yet
there is no reason for his malcontent. His spouse is twenty years
his junior, charming, affectionate, attentive – in short, the ideal
partner. But Jacob has had enough of this cornucopia of charm,
affection and attentiveness. His growing dissatisfaction with
Madame Perfect provokes him into drinking more heavily and he becomes
increasingly violent to the one who loves him...
