In present day London a middle aged woman looks back at the time when she, and a group of her female friends, were all unfaithful to their husbands, and all with the same man. The story which she tells is a master piece of black humour, and reveals much about friendship, infidelity, and how the past will always catch up with you. The language is dazzling - sharp, inventive, concise and witty. The humour is black and the cast of characters bizarre, fascinating and entirely convincing. The way that different voices and different timescales are used is original and works brilliantly. Very few books manage to be both frivilous and profound - but this one does. Women will find this book talks honestly about why women are unfaithful. Men may find it a worrying read!
