"This Is Not a Story." Denis Diderot.



Review: First a tale of faithful man and his faithless lover. Then a tale of a faithless woman and a faithful man. Which is worse at being faithless? Men or women? An argument that will go on and on forever. And what happens when the woman is both faithful and faithless by turns. This is not a story because it is true.
