Girl On The Best Seller List (1988) - Plot & Excerpts
Red! red! red! — whirling before your eyes bright as a poppy, commanding as a traffic light, only you do not stop for the color of love — you go, you forget all the rules and just go! — FROM Population 12,360 FREDDY FULTON drove South on Route 2. In half an hour he would reach Elbridge. He was sure he would find Virginia there with Edwina, but now a new thought bothered him. What was happening to Edwina? What was happening to change her so remarkably, now, near the end of everything between them? This thought overshadowed the fear of Edwina’s going to Gloria for help with her novel.(Help. Freddy wanted to laugh. Edwina would tell Gloria the whole business in an eye’s wink; she wouldn’task Gloria Wealdon anything. All she’d been doing since their affair came to an end was tell people about it. Anyone — the bartender at the Elbridge Inn, a stranger, one of her men, anyone — just tell people. Pound it out on the typewriter and blab it out all over the place, but tell, tell, tell!) It had not been easy for Freddy Fulton to make the decision to sever his relationship with Edwina.
