1920s England. One conventional society lady's life is about to change forever.

Rattling around in the too-large family home, her daughters fled the nest and her archaeologist husband working overseas, Claudia faces an empty future.

Then a surprise visit from a colleague of her husband's shakes her out of her torpor in an unexpected way, and encourages her to venture into the world with a fresh mind and updated outlook, prompted to re-evaluate the lives of her family and her friends and, ultimately, herself.

It is a brand new world of the Roaring Twenties: a carnival of short skirts and no corsets, unorthodox attitudes and convention-defying desires. Of fun, freedom and Marie Stopes. Where sex does not have to mean just lying back and thinking of England. Where, as Claudia discovers, the possibilities - even for a woman in her fifties - are endless.'

???? 'A coming-of-age story set in the 1920s where the protagonist, Claudia, shakes off the shackles of a prim, well-to-do lady and discovers the joy of sex.'

Industry Reviews

‘Clever, original, beautifully written, with the kind of dry, sly wit that is so pleasing.’ Joan Deitch.
