At university, he falls deeply in love with an older man just before Nigeria enacts laws so draconian gay men begin locking themselves into marriage.

Seduced by their shiny confidence, she agrees to join them in their latest squat, an abandoned ski resort above her small hometown. Lewis unfolds her story through Elen often perplexed by why she\u2019s been picked out to join this group of ski bums whose way of life has been cobbled together by Luka, their tacitly acknowledged leader, from the writings of a nineteenth-century French philosopher.

Helen, one of the brightest minds of her generation, joins her Nobel laureate boss at a research institute on a small island in the North Atlantic, where he\u2019s been banished along with many other academics and assorted other transgressors, persuading her partner to spend twelve months there with her. Helen tells us her story, so immersed in her work that she can\u2019t see the wood for the trees but brought up short by both events and her husband\u2019s increasing anger. Taranto\u2019s novel is very funny at times and even-handed in its skewering of both sides, although subtlety is not his strong point.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-33946\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=\" http:=\"\" alt=\"Cover image for One Woman Show by Caroline Coulson\" width=\"196\" height=\"300\" data-lazy-srcset=\"https:\/\/t9z6e6y4.delivery.rocketcdn.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/One-Woman-Show-196x300.webp 196w, https:\/\/t9z6e6y4.delivery.rocketcdn.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/One-Woman-Show.webp 326w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 196px) 100vw, 196px\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/t9z6e6y4.delivery.rocketcdn.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/One-Woman-Show-196x300.webp\"\/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-33946\" src=\"https:\/\/t9z6e6y4.delivery.rocketcdn.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/One-Woman-Show-196x300.webp\" alt=\"Cover image for One Woman Show by Caroline Coulson\" width=\"196\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/t9z6e6y4.delivery.rocketcdn.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/One-Woman-Show-196x300.webp 196w, https:\/\/t9z6e6y4.delivery.rocketcdn.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/One-Woman-Show.webp 326w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 196px) 100vw, 196px\"\/>It\u2019s its distinctly unusual structure that attracts me to Christine Coulson\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.waterstones.com\/book\/one-woman-show\/christine-coulson\/9781802067262\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong><em>One Woman Show<\/em><\/strong><\/a> which tells the story of a wealthy woman in the style of exhibition notes. \u2018Christine Coulson, who has written hundreds of exhibition wall labels for the Metropolitan Museum of Art, precisely distils each stage of Kitty\u2019s sprawling life into that distinct format, every brief snapshot in time a wry reflection on womanhood, ownership, value and power. Described with wit, poignancy and humour over the course of the twentieth century, Kitty emerges as an eccentric heroine who disrupts her privileged, porcelain life with both major force and minor transgressions. As human foibles propel each delicately crafted text, Coulson playfully asks: who really gets to tell our stories?\u2019 says the blurb appealing to my thirst for novelty.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s it for January\u2019s first batch of paperbacks.
