Georgy Girl - Softcover
Georgy is young, gregarious and fun - she is also large, self-confessedly ugly and desperate for love.

About the Author:
Born in Carlisle, Margaret Forster was the author of many successful and acclaimed novels, including Have the Men Had Enough?, Lady's Maid, Diary of an Ordinary Woman, Is There Anything You Want? , Keeping the World Away, Over and The Unknown Bridesmaid. She also wrote bestselling memoirs - Hidden Lives, Precious Lives and, most recently, My Life in Houses - and biographies. She was married to writer and journalist Hunter Davies and lived in London and the Lake District. She died in February 2016, just before her last novel, How to Measure a Cow, was published.
Review:
"The book moves along at a funny, extremely enjoyable speed in step with Georgy's restless energy, sometimes verging on the farcical, and always contained just this side of pathos" * The Times * "Forster is remarkably honest, skilful and perceptive" * Observer * "Forster has that rare ability to step into another's shoes" * Company *
