Maggie Gee was chosen as one of Granta's 'Best Young British Novelists' in 1983. Since then she has published ten novels to great acclaim, including The White Family (shortlisted for the Orange Prize and for the Impac Award ), The Flood (longlisted for the Orange Prize) and My Cleaner. She is the first female Chair of the Royal Society of Literature and lives in London.

'So rich it is almost aromatic ... an impressive and important novel.' Nigella Lawson* 'A remarkable and ambitious book, a tribute to Maggie Gee's imaginative power.' Literary Review 'An entertaining, shocking and moral comment about self-delusion.' Irish Times 'The most exhilarating novel I've read all year.' Scotland on Sunday 'A rich story of the heart told through a harlequin pattern of alternating voices, each of which is a work of real imaginative insight.' Marie Claire 'Maggie Gee's immense talent catches passion on the wing ... a romance of a truth and depth that's never without humour.' Mail on Sunday
