Linda Kelly sketches in the political background as well as the literary beginnings of the French Romantic movement... She traces the rise and decline of Romantic theatre from 'Cromwell' to 'Ruy Blas', with piquant cameos of the famous prima donnas, the most - perhaps the only - independent women of their time, except of course the unique Georges Sand. -- The Washington Post

1980. US warships cruise to and from battle-station off the coast of Iran. On one, a Lieutenant JG tries to come to grips with his free/unfree status following a failed marriage. On another, a civilian professor tries to maintain moral equilibrium between ethnic rivals, officers and men, chaplains and irreligious types in this hermetically-sealed, yet representative microcosm of America.
