Reviews

'The perfect holiday read: sexy, satirical, funny, light as air' The Scotsman 'A frothy, spiky book, brimming with puns and caricatures of ghastly social gargoyles' Daily Mail 'Girl-meets-earl fantasy from a very funny British novelist... The whimsical ingenuity of PG Wodehouse meets the sex-o-matic action of Jackie Collins. Holden stays in control of her supercharged face all the way, though, even when a host of hysterically funny characters almost steal the show' Kirkus Reviews 'On gloomy days, Wendy Holden's novels should be handed round like aspirin. Her new book, PASTURES NOUVEAUX, is guaranteed to bring a smile evne to the baddest of moods... The hills are alive with the sound of high jinks in this laugh-a-minute romp' B magazine 'The perfect holiday read: sexy, satirical, funny, light as air' The Scotsman
