Out of the Blue (Red Dress Ink
(Numbered Paperback)) by Isabel
Wolff
Great Book For Women
Faith has arranged a surprise party at a West London restaurant to
celebrate fifteen years of marriage to her publisher husband Peter. They
have a lot to be thankful for - including two teenage children and the
knowledge that, at thirty-five, theyve hammered out an enduring
partnership that, at this age, many of their contemporaries are only just
themselves embarking upon. But something is niggling at Faith. A casual,
barbed comment by her bitchy magazine editor friend Lily makes her
wonder whether her world is as wonderful as it seems on the surface.
Peter has been behaving slightly oddly recently - but is this purely because
of stress at work? Is Faith really too smug and trusting? As the kernel of
unease swells and begins to burgeon inside her, Faith finds herself on a
quest that leads to a shake-up of everything she holds dear - but which, in
the end, enables her to reforge her life.

Personal Review: Out of the Blue (Red Dress Ink (Numbered
Paperback)) by Isabel Wolff
I had been recommended Isabel Wolff in the past but this was my first
tryout with one of her novels and I can only say that Out of the Blue kept
me thoroughly entertained this past weekend. I would characterise it this
way: it's well-plotted, page-turning and with a good deal of quirky humor -
particularly with the family's beloved ex-stray dog that likes to watch food
programmes - and it's also touching. Weather girl Faith Martin's *happy*
marriage has hit the rocks and is about to he smashed to pieces, but can
the fragments be glued together again? There are some great characters -
Faith herself not so much - but her uber-bitch best friend Lily, queen of the
glossy magazinesm, and Faith's two oddball teenage kids. Katie, aged
only 12 or so, constantly psychoanalyzes everyone - with startlingly
accurate results - and the son, Matt, is a maths prodigy who Faith's mom is
secretly leading astry by encouraging him to play on Wall Street. If you like
novels about single women in the city looking for love, and downing too
many margaritas, this book is probably not for you, but if you are looking
for a well-written engaging read whcih deals in some complex human
situations in a humorous and insightful way, then I'd recommend it without
hesitation.
