An exploration of the difficulty melding our separate selves and dealing with the conflicting desires for security and freedom played out in an extreme case of those difficulties. ( ) Moglie dolcissima e mite, amante appassionata e bugiarda, Sabina, la protagonista di Una spia nella casa dell'amore, è una donna dalle innumerevoli sfaccettature che cerca la propria identità inseguendo contemporaneamente molti amori. L'unione con il marito le dà sicurezza, ma non la soddisfa appieno, perché un solo amore non riesce a far vibrare in lei le infinite corde della sua sensualità. Durante le molteplici peregrinazioni amorose, Sabina ritrova negli altri uomini il riflesso del suo io spezzato che però non le corrisponde mai esattamente. This book was written in the late 1950s and I can understand why it must have been quite shocking at the time. I also believe it stands the test of time well....maybe not shocking any more, but still a story that is relevant today. Sabina is married to Alan. She loves him and feels protected and loved in their relationship. She is, however, compelled to fall in love with strangers and has a series of affairs. In each one, she becomes a different person. She takes on roles to give her partners what they need or want from her. She lives with feelings of guilt and remains restless and unfulfilled. The book explores Sabina's thoughts and feelings. It is sensuous, interesting and ultimately, sad. I subtracted half a star because the last paragraph didn't make sense to me. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

Beautiful, bored and bourgeoise, Sabina leads a double life inspired by her relentless desire for brief encounters with near-strangers. Fired into faithlessness by a desperate longing for sexual fulfilment, she weaves a sensual web of deceit across New York. But when the secrecy of her affairs becomes too much to bear, Sabina makes a late night phone-call to a stranger from a bar, and begins a confession that captivates the unknown man and soon inspires him to seek her out.
