Foreplay

Work:: Foreplay (S0962641572)

Sex of the body or sex of the mind? Which is more pleasurable? What goes deeper? Which hurts more? Four of the greatest minds of the post-war generation, Theodor Adorno and his wife Gretel, Hannah Arendt and Walter Benjamin became caught up in a heady mix of sexual and intellectual intrigue, infidelity, rivalry and mutual obsession. Years later, with Benjamin dead and Adorno established as one of the great celebrity thinkers of his time, he, Gretel and Hannah are invited to dinner by a mysterious young woman. When this woman tells them she could reveal secrets that could change their lives for ever, all three are forced to face the lies, jealousies and sexual proclivities that they have hidden for decades as their loyalty to each other is tested to the utmost... This ingenious psycho-sexual thriller of betrayal and revenge takes into the lives of some of the greatest celebrity thinkers of our time to expose the uneasy relationship between genius and hypocrisy in us all.
