A Hard Time to be a Father by Fay Weldon
Love, sex, jealousy and hate form the core of this collection. The near-future, the not-so-distant past, new technology, old habits and other millennial minutiae ebb and flow throughout tales both global and personal.
Praise for Fay Weldon's short stories: 'Weldon's stories pull no punchesThere is always humour, and the wry and life-hardened smiles of middle age are often set in contrast to the po-faced enthusiasms and idiocies of youth.' Independent on Sunday 'Weldon is an enthusiastic observer of social trends and the stories are bang up-to-date.' Financial Times 'Immaculately written, simple, stylish and swallowable whole. Her stories are so smart and sassy and multiply ironic.' Scotsman
