Reviews / Votes
'Meticulously planned and mightily enjoyable, Fay Weldon's latest is a real treat.' Daily Mail 'As delightfully idiosyncratic as its mettlesome heroines, this novel is well up to Weldon's high standard of fictional entertainment.' The Times 'Good-humoured, wise and entertaining novel ... There is so much to enjoy and admire in Rhode Island Blues.' The Spectator 'This is terrific stuff. Nobobdy writes about the lot of modern women - and men - with the wisdom or wit of Fay Weldon ... Marvellous.' Sunday Herald, Glasgow 'A substantial treat for those long Autumn evenings after a summer of superficial beach and airport novels.' Ham & High 'The Golden Girls on acid.' Sunday ExpressMore details
