The Constant Wife

In a society where the rules are crystal clear, the beautiful Constance Middleton ignores them all. For her, a husband’s affairs are to be recognized, dealt with and confronted, but only when necessary. Her marriage is not a sacred institution but a contract, to be re-examined and, at times, renewed. Somerset Maugham’s The Constant Wife is a brilliantly witty and irresistible 1920s comedy about marriage, manners and mistresses.
