Camberwell Beauty

Description

Welcome to South London, to one of the nicest streets in one of the country’s vilest boroughs. For the residents of Lark Grove, events collide like cars on a fogbound motorway. There’s Anna, a butter-side-up sort of woman; Anna’s neighbor Jo, the kind of woman who can ask for a pound of sausages without the butcher smirking; their sons and daughters—“Nancyboy” Jed, sniveling Henry, prepubescent Uberbitch Georgina—and Jo’s husband, Nigel, a terrible one for casual sex. Jenny Eclair’s cautionary debut novel skillfully dissects the perils of modern urban living. ISBN:9780751530995
