Product Description
Review
‘Wise, witty and barbed.' Sunday Times
‘Weldon always has interesting things to say about the battle of the sexes and there is plenty of wry humour along the way.’ Mail on Sunday
‘It’s all here: orgasms, hen nights, coveting best friends’ husbands, the joy of friends, sisters bearing gifts and caramelised bananas…This is brilliant to dip into when you’re annoyed with the world.’ Eve
‘If you want the truth about the man-woman thing, forget all those cloying self-help books and read Fay Weldon.’ New York Times
The Sunday Times
'Wise witty and barbed.'

Format:Paperback
This text looks like the disjointed jottings from a notebook which were never worked into a coherent whole. Presumably some bills needed paying and this was the easy way to do it. Apart from this the text looks like the musings of a Victorian lady. Don't expect anything, be good... who needs that sort of advice.

I love, or rather, loved the writings of Ms. Weldon. Have for more years than I care to admit.
But this latest is just a nothing bit of rubbish.
Not even the little stories within save the day.
Perhaps the well has gone dry. It happens.
I think the writer would do better at spending her time helping her friends get a new book out. (Mr. Ronan comes to mind)
If you are a fan, keep yourself as one by not picking up this book.
Hope the rent got paid, Fay Weldon.

I don't really understand what the point of the book is. I've never read any of her previous stuff and just picked it up as an impulse buy from the self help section but I didn't find it helpful in any way shape or form. Is it supposed to be just a random collection of her thoughts? Is it all to be taken light heartedly? Or am I just not one of the women she is supposed to be writing about?

Waste of time and money
I picked this up in an airport bookstore in hopes of having reading material on the plane. What a terrible flight stuck with this 'book', with a terrible arrogant title. Read more

All men should read this
This little jewel will be hidden away in some section of the bookshop unfrequented by men, which is a shame. Read more
