A twisted masterpiece of old-world glamour and new-world deviance . . .
'Kissing In Manhattan' is the reason you leaned to read. It is a twisted series of intertwining New York fairytales by an astonishingly original, funny and talented new writer. It features the Preemption, a palatial and old-fashioned New York apartment building, and an extraordinary cast of recurring characters: Patrick, the diabolical millionaire with a taste for nude restraint; Rally, lying tied up in Patrick's bedroom during an outrageous party; Hannah, the nymphomaniac perfume heiress; and Douglas, the teacher invited to dinner by his star pupil's parents, and propositioned.
'Kissing In Manhattan has everything: decadence, dark intentions, astonishing humour, romance, danger, and true brilliance. It is, above all, a staggeringly stylish debut.
