'An excellent and entertaining read' Daily Mail

'A love story and political comment, a defence of the art of fiction, a masterpiece' Evening Standard

'Rich and splendid...viciously funny and a rip-roaring read' Elle

A Vicious Circle exposes the corruption of London's journalistic circuit, the horrors of our hospitals and slums, and the transformations caused by motherhood.

Gripping, tender and fiercely funny, it has been instantly recognised as a modern classic about the way we live now.
