Lace by Shirley Conran
THE SCANDALOUS CLASSIC THAT DEFINED AN ERA - THREE MILLION COPIES SOLD
Lace gave me prolonged pleasure -- Helen Fielding
There was life before Lace and life after Lace, and nothing was ever the same againI envy anyone who hasn't read it -- India Knight
Sex, glamour, and bitchery to an epic degree. Lace is the classic that secured Shirley Conran's place in the same high-octane sorority as Jackie Collins, Judith Krantz and Jacqueline Susann, and it still thrills. It changed my life -- J.J. Salem, author of Tan Lines
As sexy and smart now as the first day it came out -- Lauren Laverne
A gorgeous, glorious, ground-breaking saga of sex, scandal and family secrets. Here is the return of an awesome blockbuster classic, as fearless and fabulous as it was thirty years ago. Lace is the definitive drama of passion, friendship, intrigue and betrayal. It is hands-down one of the best things to come out of the eighties. I adore it -- Victoria Fox, author of Hollywood Sinners
Lace features women you would be proud to call friends. Pick up this book and be sucked into the lives of four female characters who use their own intelligence and confidence to get ahead by themselves. I've loved Lace since I was a teenager and it's still as gripping as it ever was -- Harriet Evans, author of The Love of Her Life
