Book description
May Woodlea is a champion procrastinator - the 3 a. m. failure in us
all. She is not writing the proposal for her PhD. She lives in a
grotty bedsit with her long-suffering partner Jansen. She is plagued
by her unforgivably cheerful younger sister Elizabeth.
How will May find purpose in her life and escape the daily grind?
Can May and Jansen rescue their relationship from a seeming eternity
of grudge-holding, competitive tiredness, imagined slights and
absolutely no sex? And what will happen when a glamorous, domineering
French writer and an old flame of Jansen's come on the scene?
Footnotes to Sex is a painfully funny novel about
procrastination, double-chocolate biscuits, the importance of
commitment and what happens in relationships when the sex isn't happening...
Mia Farlane was born in New Zealand. After spending several years in
France she moved to London, where she now lives. This is her first
novel.
