The one & only Fay Weldon tells the story of her turbulent & controversial life. From the 1930s to the 2000s, Fay Weldon has seen & lived our times. As a child in New Zeal&, young & poor in London, unmarried mother, wife, lover, playwright, novelist, feminist, anti-feminist, spag-bol-cook, winer-&-diner, there are few waterfronts that she hasn't covered, few battles she hasn't fought. An icon to many, a thorn-in-the-flesh to others, she has never failed to excite, madden, or interest. Her life & times cover love, sex, babies, blokes, poverty, work, politics, & not a few Very Famous Names. Moving from New Zealand to London to Scotl&, from the UK to points east & west, Weldon has sipped, gulped, & sometimes spat out the things that make us what we are today.
