Product Description
Fay Weldon's writing career has never been predictable or conventional, and her much-anticipated autobiography is no exception. In Auto-Da-Fay, Weldon doesn't actually set fire to herself, but the scourge is there. She brings a skeptical and self-critical eye to her life and times. Honesty is not the half of it. She writes brilliantly about her upbringing in New Zealand in a household of women; of surviving the Second World War in England; of university at St. Andrews; of life as a copywriter in London; of various relationships and marriages; of children and living in the countryside; and much, much more. Auto-Da-Fay is a book of wit, wisdom, sadness, and happiness. Fans of Fay Weldon will be enthralled, and newcomers to her work will be intrigued. Fay weldon in one of the world's best-known and loved writers. She has published 25 novels, including The Life and Loves of a She-Devil and, most recently, The Bulgari Connection, which stirred up plenty of controversy.
