Description
Liz and Barry are enviable tokens of unwed bliss. They’re thirtysomething, cosily intimate and symbols of happy togetherness to their friends.
It comes as a shock to everyone, including Liz, when Barry follows his work abroad. He assumes Liz will accompany him. She doesn’t.
The liberation of Liz takes dramatic form. She and her friends have joked about younger lovers. About moulding younger minds, not to mention younger flesh. No one expects Liz to do it. Then Darren, the boy who ‘helps’ at her health club, proves all too willing to be part of her recuperation. But he doesn’t reckon on either his heart or hers being vulnerable.
This warming and provocative story of couples, as one relationship ends and a new, more forbidden one begins, is beautifully observed. Memorable and witty, it is both a love story and modern comedy of manners that is totally compelling.
Soft cover, 344 pages. In good preloved condition with the exception of written names on first page, slight yellowing to pages, and a few signs of wear on the cover.
