The Affair of the Seventh Year

Richard Sherman, a happily-married Manhattan husband, father, and over-imaginative publisher, has just sent his wife and son to Maine for the summer; he stays behind to make money during the exhausting dog days of August. Determined to stay out of trouble--and, above all, faithful--poor Sherman has a chance encounter with the embodiment of temptation instead: the statuesque, Marilyn Monroe-beautiful upstairs neighbor. And, bewitched, Richard gets the "itch". Can the summer bachelor resist The Girl's charms and the overwhelming urge to taste the forbidden fruit?
