The War Between the Tates
Author(s): Alison Lurie
Brian and Erica Tate appear to have every advantage in life- academic careers, a stable relationship, two children, nice friends and money. But when Brian begins an affair with one of his students the disintegration of their lives is startling. Things spiral when a protest against a sexist professor at the university ramps up and Brian, hopelessly compromised by split loyalties, gets caught up in the action.
The warring Tates find the turbulence of a changing world coming all the way to their doorstep. Can their marriage survive? Lurie skewers both sides in this brilliant campus satire of late-60s feminism, parenthood, infidelity and academic pomposity.
