Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fay Weldon delivers a brilliant novel that lays bare the secret hearts of women and men When Joanna May’s husband, nuclear entrepreneur Carl, discovered that she was having an affair, he filed for divorced and had her lover killed. Now, sixty-year-old Joanna has no children and lives with her decades-younger gardener, a wannabe rock star. Carl, who also lives with a much younger partner, has never quite recovered from the affair—and Joanna is about to discover just how tightly he’s held on. Thirty years ago, when Joanna thought she was having an abortion, Carl and her gynecologist conducted a terrifying experiment. The result? Jane, Gina, Julie, and Alice; one person replicated four times. And all of them, Joanna included, are suffering at the hands of the men in their lives. The Cloning of Joanna May is a spellbinding novel about the elusive nature of identity, the consequences of playing God, and the ongoing struggle for power between women and men.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times Notable Book of the Year. “[A] wry and witty examination of where feminism went wrong and, occasionally, right . . . sharp, funny.” —Kirkus Reviews This latest offering from critically acclaimed author Fay Weldon is a darkly comic romp through the minefields of friendship and feminism. On a balmy evening in 1971, five women meet in a cramped living room in the suburbs of London. Tired of their husbands and their own unsatisfying lives, they form the aptly named Medusa, a book publishing house founded on the principle of “getting even.” With wry and savvy humor, Weldon weaves us through twenty years of these women’s lives, as good intentions fall by the wayside and the hazards of their new politics, sex, and infidelity take their toll. “Weldon at her feisty best. Always the mistress of the ironic understatement . . . she has built here a dramatic Technicolor landscape . . . Sly, arch, poised, and funny . . . Big Girls Don’t Cry stands absolutely in its own right.” —Mail on Sunday (London) “A postmodern comedy of manners that owes more to Jane Austen than Germaine Greer . . . She here reaches beyond the stereotypes of the good woman and bad man to create a novelistic family that is genuinely down and dirty, real and gritty.” —The Washington Times “Supremely satisfying and very funny.” —Cleveland Plain Dealer “A characteristically tart look back at the early days of feminism as experienced by four Londoners . . . Weldon wryly applauds the effort it takes to remain faithful to the cause.” —Publishers Weekly

Book excerpt: "I read my daughter's diaries the other day. You may find that despicable, but let me share with you. You think truly dreadful things only happen in other countries, other cultures, far away: but they also happen in your own back yard, and to the nicest people." Sappho was so happy when she married Gavin. She was in love and it seemed that at last everything was falling into place. But she hadn't considered his daughter, Isobel. She is a delightful, charming girl who spends her school holidays caring for the elderly and is the apple of Gavin's eye. Now cast in the role of Wicked Stepmother, Sappho tries all she can to befriend Isobel and find her place in the new family. It's not easy, but no one had promised it would be. Sappho perseveres. But she has a history, and the history works against her. When it becomes clear that, contrary to popular belief, it is Isobel who steals Gavin's love and attention, and Sappho who must fight for his affection, Sappho is at a loss. How can she win her husband back? With warmth, wit and her unique insights into the workings of the female mind, Fay Weldon has written a brilliant, unsettling new novel about family life today.

Book excerpt: “Wickedly funny satire of modern love, work, and parenthood . . . deft plot twists and a final delicious surprise”—from the New York Times Notable author (People). Fay Weldon lets her incisive wit loose on a hot issue facing many modern families—child care, and what can happen when that involves having a nanny under your roof. Hattie and Martyn are the proud parents of newborn Kitty; both are in their early thirties, smart, handsome, and, for reasons of liberal principle, not married but partnered. All seems fine at first—healthy baby, happy couple—but when they have to decide who’ll look after little Kitty, things get complicated. Hattie’s dying to get back to work but Martyn fears employing foreign help might hurt his leftist political aspirations. Martyn capitulates when Agnieska arrives—a Polish nanny who happens to be both domestic goddess and first-rate belly dancer, the maker of a mean cup of cocoa who’s also educated in early childhood development. Having her in the house makes life livable again for the young couple, so when problems arise with her immigration papers Martyn and Hattie will do anything to keep her in the country. But will their decision to have Martyn marry her be the trouble-free solution they envision? “Long a chronicler of the war between the sexes, Weldon takes on motherhood and child rearing . . . [Her] trademark acid wit is very much in evidence here, especially on the final pages, which she embellishes with a delicious fillip.” —Entertainment Weekly “Dry, delicious . . . Weldon . . . is far from compassionate—acerbic would be the better word.” —The Washington Post

Book excerpt: A husband’s sudden death reveals some unpleasant truths: “Fast-paced black comedy . . . compulsively readable.” —Publishers Weekly When Worst Fears opens, Alexandra Ludd has been a widow for less than seventy hours, her husband, Ned, former theater critic and stay-at-home father to their young son, Sascha, having died of an apparent heart attack. Alexandra, beautiful, adored darling of the London stage, is too overcome with grief to realize she’s been lied to: Ned didn’t keel over in the dining room, as her good friends told her. He died in their marital bed—and he wasn’t alone. At first Alexandra’s in denial, but when Ned’s mistress starts stalking her, she must face the truth: The man she loved was unfaithful. To add insult to injury, it seems everyone knew about Ned and dumpy, middle-aged, married Jenny Linden. A scathing exposé of infidelity, Worst Fears is Fay Weldon at her most fiendishly funny and cutting.

Download or read book Mantrapped written by Fay Weldon and published by Grove/Atlantic, Inc.. This book was released on 2007-12-01 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Booker Prize nominee’s quirky novel about a man and woman trading bodies, supplemented with her personal commentary: “Tremendously fun to read.”—Booklist Described as a “reality novel,” Mantrapped reveals, in alternating chapters, personal reflections and observations of the acclaimed author Fay Weldon and the fictional story of a broke, fortysomething woman who brushes past a handsome male newspaper editor—and in that moment, mysteriously switches souls with him. A follow-up to Weldon’s autobiographical Auto da Fay, this creative concoction reminds us why the author of The Life and Loves of a She-Devil and dozens of other works is so renowned for her “piercing, insightful, razor-like wit” (The Washington Post), especially when it comes to the battle of the sexes. “She’s just so good...Weldon’s extraordinary wit and insight ricochet through these pages.”—The Baltimore Sun “If you can just keep up with Weldon’s madcap journey, Mantrapped is more than worth the trip.”—O, the Oprah Magazine

Download or read book Out of the Garden written by Christina Buchmann and published by Ballantine Books. This book was released on 2012-06-13 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "By turns witty, erudite, probingly serious and sparklingly irreverent, these essays refresh our readings of the Bible, and deepen our vision of foundational feminist figures. A wonderfully thought-provoking and readable collection." EVA HOFFMAN Author of EXIT INTO HISTORY This is the first collection of essays in which women read and respond to the Bible out of pleasure and curiosity--reclaiming the Bible for women and showing readers that the Bible is a source we can return to again and again. Drawing on their own epxeriences and interests, Louise Erdrich, Cynthia Ozick, Fay Weldon, Phyllis Trible, Rebecca Goldstein, June Jordan, Ursula Le Guin, and twenty-one other writers boldly imaginatively--and sometimes reproachfully--address the Old Testament stories, characters, and poetry that mean the most to them. As with all great works of literature, it is a book that changes as we change, a garden in its own right whose pleasures are there for the taking, as are its surprises and thorny byways.
