Bernadette Strachan, author of The Reluctant Landlady and
Diamonds and Daisies, is back with another book that will hit the shelves later
this year. Why Do We Have to Live With Men? Is due for release in October and
focuses on Cat, who decides to start a new life...without men! Here's some more
information:
Well, it's a good question, isn't it? And Cat
O'Connor, escaping from a ruined affair, is about to find the answer. When she
is invited to join a group of women in a huge, decaying farmhouse deep in the
West Country, Cat prepares to embark on a life without men. She is promised a
nirvana of serenity where the chores are done without mutinous mutterings,
nourishing food simmers on the Aga and feelings are taken seriously. But Cat
soon discovers that women are no saints either. Vegetable-related subterfuge,
secret passions, a misogynist ghost and a pig called Dave all nudge Cat on her
way to answering the vital question in every girl's life with wit, humour and
warmth.
