What is Peyton Amberg : a novel about?

<p>In her sizzling new novel, Tama Janowitz moves beyond the world of the single woman (<i>Slaves of New York, A Certain Age</i>), and now targets a young woman growing ever restless in her marriage, and ever hopeful that the next bed will produce someone more exciting. As she moves from man to man, Peyton Amberg slowly but surely loses her youthfulness, her good looks, even her sanity, as her paramours become rougher and the sex more dangerous.</p> <p>A savvy riff on the classic figure of Madam Bovary, <i>Peyton Amberg</i> is a caustic and brilliant satire of contemporary marriage as it is undermined by free-floating lust and exploits of a woman yearning for fulfillment outside of rigid societal structure.</p> <p><i>Peyton Amberg</i> is nasty, funny, jaundiced, sarcastic, searingly honest, and mesmerizing from beginning to end.</p>
