BEFORE THEY WERE THE WIDOWS OF EASTWICK, OUR HEROINES WERE
A TRIO OF DELIGHTFULLY WICKED WITCHES.
In a small New England town in that hectic era when the
sixties turned into the seventies, there lived three
witches. Alexandra Spoffard, a sculptress, could create
thunderstorms. Jane Smart, a cellist, could fly. The local
gossip columnist, Sukie Rougemont, could turn milk into
cream. Divorced but hardly celibate, the wonderful witches
one day found themselves quite under the spell of the new
man in town, Darryl Van Horne, whose strobe-lit hot tub
room became the scene of satanic pleasures.
To tell you any more, dear reader, would be to spoil the
joy of reading this hexy, sexy novel by the incomparable
John Updike.
