Review
Really rather bonkers. Exceptionally good, but bonkers * Daily Telegraph * This potent brew of social comment, dystopian satire, vicious comedy and vintage Weldon wisdom is a marvellous ride * The Times * Sinister, clever, funny and vintage Weldon. Why hasn't she been made a Dame? * Independent * Weldon back to her best - an apocalypse-very-soon-from-now delivered with her trademark warm-hearted cynicism and bone-dry wit * Daily Mail * Sparkles with wit and acute observation... a clever jeu d'esprit * Guardian * Reads like a first novel... it's so fresh and vibrant and funny. The funniest dystopian novel I've ever read. And I don't think it's going to date * Boyd Hilton *
Book Description
Rediscover the joy of Fay with this wickedly sharp, history-bending, cosmos-colliding novel that fizzes with the intelligence, observation and scabrous wit that established Fay Weldon as one of Britain's most iconic authors
