Description

This is a uniquely agile and endearing debut about a single girl in Paris, who works in fashion and calls upon the saints to help her find the perfect man. "Remedy" is the perfect cure for anyone who is sick of sallow chick-lit and yearns for a book whose heroine is as intelligent as she is loveable, and still manages to pull off a fairytale ending. Readers of high-end chick-lit e.g. Kathleen Tessaro, India Knight, Melissa Bank or Diane Johnson; those who bought "French Women Don't Get Fat" or Camilla Morton's "How To Walk in High Heels"; fans of "Sex and the City", "Clueless", "Amelie" and "The Devil Wears Prada". Meet a petite befreckled blonde living in Paris and working at A La Mode On-Line. Here she lusts fruitlessly after photographers, knocks out articles on tankinis and racoon-fur trims, and makes spa-bookings and afternoon tea for the fashionistas, before slipping off to her belly-dancing class. Each lunch-time is devoted to mass at St Joe's church and each day is dedicated to one of the minor saints - whose guidance she calls upon in her quest for spiritual enlightenment and romantic fulfilment. Having juggled the attentions of an aging acrobat, a fastidious aristocrat, and a young buckaroo, Remedy prefers to dine a deux with her pampered cat Jubilee, until her encounter with the mysterious Mouktar, a pizza-delivery-man-cum-poet-philosopher, who just might be her man o' the moon...Intelligent and charming, witty and warm, "Remedy" is the exuberant story of one girl's adventures in love, faith and hemlines.
