About This Book
Madeleine wants to love, be remembered—and take revenge Abandoned by her husband, Jarvis, for a new wife and child, Madeleine is left alone with her troubled adolescent daughter, Hilary. By day, Madeleine tends (or doesn't tend) to Hilary, who is growing more difficult by the hour. By night, she entertains dark fantasies about Jarvis's second wife—Lily the Supplanter. And what of Margot, the doctor's wife, who had a one-night stand with Jarvis many moons ago? All are ripe for their comeuppance as Madeleine, with malice aforethought, orchestrates her revenge. In Remember Me, Fay Weldon plumbs the depths of a fury that nothing, not even death, can stop. Compulsively readable, this is a novel that will be remembered for its wit, originality, and persistent humanity.
