Crosscurrents excerpt

Evers, the arms merchant, in the bedroom with his wife after a party.

Her fingers drew curlicues on his arms as she spoke in his ear. “We hardly make love anymore.”
Shifting around, he said, “We’re older. At sixty-three passions wane. You can’t expect me to behave like a twenty-year-old.”
