Synopsis "the eve of saint venus"

Here is a midsummer night's dream of a novel, Anthony Burgess in a mood of comic whimsy. A baronet, Sir Benjamin Drayton, has received a consignment of stone statues of gods and goddesses, including Venus. A ring slipped on Venus's finger by a young man about to be married upsets a number of arrangements, including the wedding plans.
