Pamela Druckerman can extract innermost secrets |
When I ask: "Isn't porn an issue?", she puts down her forkful of veggie burger to stare with round blue eyes... and waits.
'Mrs Infidelity' looks as if she would sit in this state of suspended animation for ever, compelling strangers to disclose secrets they would keep from their closest friends.
