THE GATE OF AIR
by Fay Weldon
Sappho was so happy when she married Gavin. She was in love and it seemed that at last everything was falling into place. But she hadn’t considered his daughter, Isobel. She is a delightful, charming girl who spends her school holidays caring for the elderly and is the apple of Gavin’s eye. Now cast in the role of Wicked Stepmother, Sappho tries all she can to befriend Isobel and find her place in the new family. It’s not easy, but no one had promised it would be. Sappho perseveres. But she has a history, and the history works against her. With warmth, wit and her unique insights into the workings of the female mind, Fay Weldon offers a brilliant, unsettling new novel about family life today.
