The Pleasure Dome — Judith Liederman

When the sensuous young debutante Laina Eastman wed talented David Goldmark, the union of their two wealthy families created an empire of boundless opulence -- and a knot of tangled relationships. Though she played a perfect role as a glittering society wife, Laina harbored a clandestine love that endured the changes of the seasons and the fickle twists of fate, spanning the tumultuous decades from WWII to the present.

This is a riveting saga of the rich and the mighty, their most cherished hopes and secret desires, their boldest dreams and wildest ambitions -- and their struggles to conquer the passions of the heart.
