Summaries

Sportswriter Sam Craig and columnist Tess Harding, with the same New York newspaper, overcome their initial antagonism, fall in love and get married, only to find their relationship strained when he comes to resent her hectic lifestyle.

Tess and Sam work on the same newspaper and don't like each other very much. At least the first time, because they eventually fall in love and get married. But Tess is a very active woman and one of the most famous feminists in the country; she is even elected as "the woman of the year." Being busy all the time, she forgets how to really be a woman and Sam begins to feel neglected.—Chris Makrozahopoulos <[email protected]>

Tess Harding is a progressively-minded political journalist. Sam Craig is a sports writer with very traditional values. The only thing the two have in common is that they both work for the same New York City newspaper. Despite an initial and mutual dislike, the two eventually fall in love and get married. When Tess wins the Woman of the Year award, traditional gender roles become flipped and their relationship suffers as a result.—Jwelch5742
