In the title novella, Rome is the stunning backdrop for a renowned novelist's dangerous affair. "Uncle Spencer" is the "exquisite" tale of an aging World War I verteran's quest for the lost love he met in a prison in the war, and "Two or Three Graces," recounts a destructive writer's abusive relationship with an impressionable housewife.
