Weldon on top form; Weldon tackling love, sex, ageing, death;
Weldon at her wittiest best; Weldon unparalleled. Sophia is a
thirty-four-year-old film editor living in Soho. Her only living
relation (she thinks), her grandmother Felicity, is an
eighty-three-year-old widow (several times) living in smart
Connecticut. Sophia is torn between her delight in her freedom and
a nagging desire for the family ties that everyone else grumbles
about: casual sex is all very well, but who do you spend Christmas
with? Her current bed-mate seems to be in love with a glamorous
Hollywood film star (not that Sophia cares, of course: she's a New
Woman); her mad mother is dead. All she has is Felicity. But
Felicity is not your average granny. Temperamental, sophisticated,
chic (and alarmingly eccentric), she has seen much of life, love
and sex and is totally prepared to see more. Even if it is from a
twilight home (The Golden Bowl Complex for Creative
Retirement)...Twilight is not at all Felicity's idea of fun; and
quite possibly she has more idea of fun than her granddaughter. As
the two women's stories unravel, the past rears up with all its
grimness and irony; but points the way to a future that may redeem
them both.
