Why does a ghost from the last century - a stroppy suffragette - show up uninvited at the apartment of fainthearted-feminist artist Albertine Andrews? Is it because Albertine hasn't has sex for 187 days and is starting to hallucinate? Or is the spectral great-great grandmother really bearing wisdom for a stressed out pre-Millenial world gone mad.

Industry Reviews

'A wee bit of your heritage' is how Albertine Andrews's mini-skirted, ex-Glaswegian-GI-bride grandmother describes the trunk that she deposits in Albertine's Broadway apartment. It is New York, summer 1999. Albertine, an oddball young painter, hasn't had sex for 187 days, which makes her think she is hallucinating when the ghost of her suffragette great-great-grandmother materializes and starts a dialogue with her that, together with letters to her sister in India, (the contents of the trunk), forms most of the text of this lively, funny story. The Times journalist Kate Muir combines a New York love affair, a shrewd glance at modern art galleries and a well-researched account of the courageous fight that won women the vote in Britain, to make a very enjoyable first novel.
