Best Laid Plans by Kathy Lette

Best Laid Plans by Kathy Lette

TO DO LIST 1) Buy hummus 2) Pay Pilates teacher 3) Find prostitute for son... When it comes to sex, even the best laid plans come unstuck in the stickiest way possible As a crossword-addicted English teacher, Lucy never expected to be arrested for kerb-crawling.

With the wisecracking Lette at the helm, the gags flow thick and fast. . But it is the thread of seriousness in the writing, the insistence on respecting people as individuals and not labelling them, that makes this an exceptional novel. * Mail on Sunday *
With her usual mixture of huge heart and humour she rips the stigma out of autism * Ruby Wax *
Deliciously rude and darkly funny, but with compassion and humanity at its heart. Read with relish. * Nicole Kidman *
A novel that'll have you laughing and crying * OK! *
Alternately hilarious and heart-breaking, I loved every minute I spent reading this. * The Daily Mail *

Kathy Lette is a celebrated and outspoken comic writer who has an inimitable take on serious current issues. She is one of the pioneering voices of contemporary feminism, paving the way for Caitlin Moran and Lena Dunham.

She first achieved succès de scandale as a teenager with the novel Puberty Blues, which was made into a major film and a TV mini-series. After several years as a newspaper columnist and TV sitcom writer in America and Australia, she’s written 11 international bestsellers in her characteristic witty voice, including Mad Cows, How to Kill Your Husband - and Other Handy Household Hints (staged by the Victorian opera) and The Boy Who Fell to Earth. She is known for her regular appearances on BBC and Sky news programmes. She is an ambassador for Women and Children First, Plan International, the White Ribbon Alliance and the NAS.

Kathy Lette lives in London with her husband and two children, and can often be found at The Savoy drinking a cocktail named after her. Kathy is an autodidact (a word she taught herself) but in 2010, received an honorary doctorate from Southampton Solent University.
