Waar gaat het over?
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
Meet Frances, one-time national treasure, former famous writer... and Fay Weldon's might-have-been younger sister.
It's 2013. Fay has long since emigrated (wouldn't you, if your imaginary sister stole your future?), and eighty-year-old Frances, her glory days gone, is savouring a slice of National Meat Loaf in her once-magnificent house. Communism's dead, capitalism's fallen, and now government bailiffs are banging on her door...
How did it come to this? When did CiviCams and powdered egg replace gossipy dinners and chocolate mousse? As Frances tries to make sense of her story, fact and fiction begin to implode. What secrets are her family hiding? Is her skunk-smoking grandson plotting revolution upstairs? And just what makes National Meat Loaf so tasty?
