Re: OXBRIDGE BLUES Wendy Holden (short story in July W & H)

Hi again Cashby,

If you would like to try a Wendy Holden novel, I suggest you start with the first one – Simply Divine. It’s about two women – a celebrity socialite with a charmed life, called Champagne D’Vyne (!), and a journalist with an ordinary life, called Jane. When their contrasting worlds become intertwined, then the fun begins.

This novel has been described as ‘a comedy of modern manners’ – ‘wickedly and bitingly witty'. Personally I find Wendy Holden’s writing very funny and very clever. However, I appreciate that her style is not to everyone’s taste. A close friend thinks her novels are silly and can’t understand why I enjoy them so much!
