Black Chiffon

By Lesley Storm.

On the eve of her son's society wedding, you meet the Christie family - on the surface as light and witty as any family created by Noel Coward. But scratch the surface and you reveal an underbelly of turmoil and a cry for help from mother and wife, Alicia.

As relevant today as when it was written in 1949, Black Chiffon explores the stresses and strains on a woman who believes she is keeping her family and her life together when inside she is falling apart.
