Book description
Georgy is young, gregarious and fun - she is also large,
self-confessedly ugly and desperate for love. Georgy bears her fate
bravely as she alternates between playing the fool and humbling herself
before Meredith, her pretty, callous flatmate, although when James,
middle-aged socialite and self-imposed 'Uncle', asks Georgy to become
his mistress, she is tempted to accept. Then Meredith announces that she
is pregnant and Jos, the expectant father, decides he is in love with
Georgy... Margaret Forster is the author of many successful and
acclaimed novels, including
Have the Men Had Enough?,
Lady's Maid
, Diary of an Ordinary Woman
, Is There Anything You Want?, Over
and Isa and May
, as well as bestselling memoirs (Hidden Lives
and Precious Lives
) and biographies. She is married to writer and journalist Hunter Davies
and lives in London and the Lake District.
