Stuff

To Emily, her interior design business is everything, but to her clueless husband Kevin, it's all just so much stuff. He despairs of her ever becoming sweeter, and turns to young Milly. But their cheeky time in Brighton has unforeseen and damn near killing consequences. And will Kevin ever again see the real love of his life, Sophie? Meanwhile Emily indulges in brief and carnal bouts with Raymond, the perpetually furious PR man, who is much keener on her daughter, Shelley. Trouble is, she is going out with his son, Gideon - who is not sure it's women he likes at all . . . Stuff is a rich, dark and densely plotted novel which scorches along with unflagging pace and crackling wit, to a climax which is surprising, electric, and very, very funny.
