Summary: Promiscuous at Forty
Comment: Marion, a professional mother and wife, buried in Salt Harbor, Maine has decided to attend a writers' convention in New York City for two days. Aspring to be recognized as a "real poet", Marion's two day sojourn becomes one of self revelation and self absorption. Marion's escapades during her 2 day visit are more than most of us would expect to encounter in an entire lifetime. Her morals are challenged as her senses are heightened, removing her "responsible" shackles and liberating her narcistic and artistic needs. The reasoniong behind the title "Naked at Forty" may be twofolds--first since Marion finds herself physically naked with Nedda and her lover and then with Myles, an old time flame, and second because Marion unclothes herself mentally and spiritually, unleashing herself from her inhibitions. Upon returning home to Larry and the Boys in Maine, on the surface it might seem to be same Marion, but underneath this facade, she has become a different woman. Ruth Benjamin gave a forthright description of a woman, entering middle age, trying to grasp on to what life has to offer before it is too late.
