The Speaker's Wife by Quentin Letts
Bestselling nonfiction author and journalist Quentin Letts at his waspish best in his first novel: Westminster intrigue, laugh-aloud satire, moving passages about the human condition and a fairytale love story.
Witty, outspoken, fierce and extremely knowledgeable about politicians * Country Life *
Rollicking debut novel.. a love song written to the grand old Church of England ... What gives the novel its gusto is the sheer delight it finds in its own stereotypes -- Chris Bryant * The Guardian *
Fascinating ... highly entertaining and clever novel ... a narrative of modern manners worthy of Anthony Trollope ... compulsive reading ... The language is inspired ... beautifully descriptive ... a rollicking good story ... one of the most enjoyable books I've read this year * Mature Times *
