My Latest Grievance
Trade Paperback
'When I was born in 1961, it was to instant campus celebrity.'
Frederica Hatch, the charming, precocious child of sweetly bonkers parents, has an idyllic if spoilt childhood in the grounds of the small, not very good, Dewing college. Everything is perfect - and then she discovers that her father has a secret. Worse still, his secret has a name: the glamorous and untrustworthy Laura Lee French, his estranged wife. And worst of all, Laura Lee's new job at Dewing is going to shatter the Hatches' little world.Buy now!

Elinor Lipman
'Just occasionally you come across a writer whose sentences are so perfect, you want to swill them around in your mouth as you read, just to savor their deliciousness. Elinor Lipman is just such a writer. When you read a book you love, you both want to gallop through it and yet never finish it... Lipman has been described as a latterday Jane Austen - I'd go along with that' Nigella Lawson
Elinor Lipman's sharp, funny, life-enhancing fiction is loved by readers everywhere, and by writers as varied as Anita Shreve, Maggie O'Farrell and Carol Shields. Four of her novels are currently in development as feature films, including Then She Found Me, which will star Helen Hunt, Bette Midler and Colin Firth. She divides her time between Massachusetts and New York City.Other books by the author
