Wicked Women by Fay Weldon
Brilliant stories from the hyper-real world of Weldonia. Brilliant stories from the hyper-real world of Weldonia, where self-deception rules; where a bully can believe he’s a victim; a blackmailer see herself as a healer; and an artist’s slave be sure she’s free. Travel in space and time: meet Miss Jacobs, the silent psychoanalyst, who receives the confessions of saints and sinners; discover the heart of a nuclear scientist, forcibly retired, who does his hopeless best to resist the wiles of a self-seeking, talking, beautiful New Age journalist – in fact all human life is here, and still in amazingly good heart, considering.‘Sparkling, sharply observing, insights delivered with a light touch that puts us in a good mood, however dark the comedy’
Spectator
‘Weldon’s writing is seductively readable, her magic realism is never pretentious; it is understated and convincing.’
