I think it was the one I liked the least of the 3 Margaret Drabble books I've read (the other two being The Millestone and A Summer Bird-Cage). I've read this one in 1991... Well, 14 years back! No wonder I don't remember much of it!
From the back cover:
"Theatrical marriages -glamorous... scandalous... bitchy... brief? Or are they in fact just like anyone else's? This novel takes the lid off one such marriage: inside we find Emma, married to an egocentric actor playing a year's season at a provincial theatre festival, David her husband -and Wyndham the producer. The mixture turns rapidly to acid."
