A "deeply provocative, obsessive story of the indissoluble relationship of bondage between a man and his maid. She arrives in his bedroom every morning with her cleaning paraphernalia, hoping to make each new round of work the perfect one for her master. He, in turn, can only notice the failure to change the towels, to fold the sheets properly, to keep her uniform crisp and clean ... It is, her assures her, an obligation to an abstract ideal of a higher order that compiles him to lead her own fulfillment in completing her tasks to utmost perfection."--Jacket.
