Waldo, a filmmaker, is confined by old age and ill health to his London apartment. He is cared for by his lovely younger wife, Zee. But when he suspects that Zee is beginning an affair with Eddie, Waldo is pressed to action: he sets himself first to prove his suspicions correct, and then to enact his revenge. / Waldo, notorio cineasta que conoció la gloria y los premios, permanece ahora postrado en una silla de ruedas por los achaques de su avanzada edad. Sin embargo, su libido sigue incólume, y su mujer, Zee, accede a sus peticiones de desnudarse ante él. El tercer vértice del triángulo lo ocupa Eddie, crítico de cine, admirador de Waldo y ahora amante de Zee ante las narices del viejo director. Este espía a la pareja y maquina su venganza con la ayuda de Anita, actriz y amiga, dispuesta a indagar en el turbulento pasado de Eddie... Dando rienda suelta a su humor canalla, Kureishi explora las desdichas de la vejez y la decrepitud física, los sórdidos conflictos matrimoniales y sexuales y los mecanismos secretos de la creatividad artística. El resultado: una tragicomedia negrísima.
