Book description
Employing her customary razor-like humour, Morag Prunty introduces a
host of characters whose lives have been chewed up and spat out by this
harsh, celebrity-obsessed world. There's Molly, a lonely 20-something,
who trudges to the newsagents every day for her fix of VIP, OK!, Hello!:
- anything to give her life a much-needed injection of glamour. . . And
there's Alfie, burned-out boyband member who's kissed the good times
goodbye and is now all washed up . . . In her inimitable way, Morag
Prunty introduces a collection of fascinating characters and gives them
a sprinkle of magic dust in this witty dissection of the vagaries of
fame and celebrity.
Morag Prunty was editor of Irish Tatler before becoming a full time
writer. She has written three previous novels, POISON ARROWS, DISCO
DADDY and DANCING WITH MULES (all published by Pan). She lives in
Dublin and in County Mayo with her husband and small son.
