She keeps the place going while she waits for her husband, a soldier who left for the front and has not come home. Word of him has gone silent. Miranda tells herself she is still waiting, yet as the seasons turn she begins to wonder whether she is holding a place for a man who may already be gone for good.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe inn is busy, and Miranda is very much its heart.

There is a well-off, older suitor who can offer her comfort, security and a way out of the daily grind. And there is a charming American, easy and worldly, who brings the promise of somewhere far beyond these fields. Miranda is in no hurry to choose. With open curiosity and a healthy love of pleasure in her own body, she tastes what each of them has to offer, weighing tenderness against wealth against adventure, before deciding whether any single one of them is worth keeping.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLoosely drawn from \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003eCarlo Goldoni\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e's classic comedy \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eLa Locandiera\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold a-text-italic\"\u003eMiranda\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003e is director \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003eTinto Brass\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003e (\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold a-text-italic\"\u003eCaligula, Salon Kitty\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003e) at his most sunlit and sensual.
