Alexandra Ludd has been a widow for less than seventy hours, her husband, Ned, former theatre critic and stay-at-home father to their young son, Sascha, having died of an apparent heart attack. Alexandra, beautiful, adored darling of the London stage, is too overcome with grief to realize she''s been lied to: Ned didn''t keel over in the dining room, as her good friends told her. He died in their marital bed - and he wasn''t alone...

Now in her ninth decade, Fay Weldon is one of the foremost chroniclers of our time, a novelist who spoke to an entire generation of women by daring to say the things that no one else would. Her work ranges over novels, short stories, children''s books, nonfiction, journalism, television, radio, and the stage. She was awarded a CBE in 2001.
