Opis: Private Lives of Pippa Lee - Rebecca Miller, R Miller

Pippa seems to have everything in life. But suddenly she finds her world beginning to unravel. Amid the buzzing lawnmowers and suburban coffee mornings, she starts to wonder how she came to be in this place. The answer is a story of wild youth, unexpected encounters, affairs and betrayals, and the dangerous security of marriage. It brilliantly reveals the challenges of modern life - and all the possibilities that it holds. "* 'Like Jonathan Franzen's The Corrections without the bitterness, mixed with Jeffrey Eugenides's The Virgin Suicides without the eccentricity, The Private Lives of Pippa Lee is a thoroughly enjoyable and engrossing read" - Sunday Telegraph * 'Miller is a luminous writer... gazing into these multiple private Pippas is like opening a series of Russian dolls, each intricately wrought, self-contained and self-revealing.' - Olivia Laing, Observer * 'A beautifully layered and subtle novel of identity, with a wonderfully vivid sense of place and character. And it's hesitatingly wise in all sorts of ways, as well as being a deftly constructed page-turner.' - Joseph O'Connor * 'Miller's astute, beautifully nuanced novel explores the unpredictable consequences of choosing to live a safe, but emotionally compromised, life.' - Eithne Farry, Daily Mail * 'Miller writes with a natural poetic flair that's considered and free from affectation.' - Easy Living * 'With beautiful simplicity, Miller unravels Pippa's past and celebrates the stirrings of something new.' - Kerry Fowler, Good Housekeeping Book of the Month * 'Miller's prose is always sharp and visual without being overly descriptive. All of the descriptions, whether of people, places or emotions manage to be both prosaic and evocative... Although it had come to a natural and perfectly timed conclusion, I could happily have read much more about Pippa Lee and her secret lives.' - Aline O'Conner, Irish Sunday Independent"
