'Doris Dubois is twenty-three years younger than I am. She is slimmer than I am, and more clever. She has a degree in economics, and hosts a TV arts programme. She lives in a big house with a swimming pool at the end of a country lane. It used to be mine...I tried to kill her once, but failed.'
Fay Weldon turns her gaze on London's super rich and delivers a thrilling satire on their world - charity auctions, commissioned portraits and exclusive designer jewellers. Not to mention adultery, attempted murder, bribery, corruption and more than a few tantrums.
"It is impossible for Fay Weldon to be dull. 'The Bulgari Connection' is her at her most seductive. It winds you in, intrigues and grips you until the end."
GAVIN ESLER, 'Daily Mail'
"A wonderful comedy of manners. Weldon writes with her characteristic dry humour and wonderful economy of language. Witty, profound and whimsical by turns, this is a sparkling novel, showing the hallmarks of a master craftsman."
WENDY HOLDEN, 'Literary Review'
