Maggie Gee

When best-selling author Angela Lamb hits a mid-life crisis she flees to New York to pursue her passion for Virginia Woolf, whose manuscripts are held there in a private collection. But when the ghostly, bedraggled writer herself materialises amongst the bookshelves, and is promptly evicted, a stunned Angela follows her heroine on to the streets of the Big Apple. A sharp, witty novel about the possibilities of life’s second chances.
