Continental Drift Zusammenfassung

Continental Drift Libby Purves

Sometimes it takes a fresh pair of eyes to see yourselves clearly...Henry is a young, hip, radio DJ; Philip is an ex-MP ruined by scandal and disowned by his party; Diana, his long-suffering wife; Marianne's replaced her husband with chocolate eclairs and gin; and Lizzie is battling with illness. When Eva, a naive and happy Polish backpacker comes into their lives, the values of their comfortable world clash with those of Eastern Europe. And the five English characters find comedy, tragedy and romance unfolding with bewildering speed.

Continental Drift Bewertungen

it is all done with the lightest of touches . . . characteristically wry . . . beguiling - Christina Koenig, Times Play

Purves is at her best when pointing out the affluence, busyness and family fragmentation of British life . . . a cosy holiday read - Publishers Weekly

Praise for MOTHER COUNTRY: 'Purves's great skill is her ability to marry her cultural and historical insights with her characters' personal development all wrapped up in a well-paced detective story. . . . Engrossing.' - Joanna Hunter, The Times
