Publisher's Summary
The amphibious cult classic: a magical tale of a suburban housewife's affair with a frogman....
Dorothy is a grieving housewife in the Californian suburbs; her husband is unfaithful, but they are too unhappy to get a divorce. One day, she hears strange voices on the radio announcing that a green-skinned sea monster has escaped from the Institute for Oceanographic Research – but little does she expect him to arrive in her kitchen. Larry the frogman is a revelation – and their passionate affair takes them on a journey beyond their wildest dreams....
