"Prudence watched, giddy with repulsion, as Purvis -- her husband of
seventeen hours and eleven minutes -- labored over his obscene repast,
ladling spoonfuls of glutinous marmalade over the kippered herrings
that lay singed and melancholy on their beds of soggy rice, oblivious
to the fact that she was still in possession of her prized and burden-
some maidenhead -- and knew that at the preordained moment she must,
out of duty, stab him with the butter knife." --Anneke Dubash
