Cakes and ale
For Alroy Kear the task is simple write the authorized biography of the eminently respectable Victorian novelist Edward Driffield and make it a bestseller. What he doesnt reckon on is the truth. Meet Rosie Driffield the lively beautiful shamelessly unfaithful first wife whos very existence and extreme influence over Driffields novels have been suppressed. Their married life together was passionate tempestuous and anything but respectable. With his second marriage comes a wife so determined to sweep away the cobwebs that she decides to have the facts rewritten in a posthumuos biography that will all but obliterate Rosies vital presence. A controversial novel when it was published Cakes and Ale brings us a heroine so sensual and modern that shes still able to raise an eyebrow today. «
