EVIE EPWORTH IS TEN YEARS OLDER. BUT IS SHE ANY WISER? ! Praise for The Miseducation of Evie Epworth ' Tight, clever and riddled with wit. Like discovering Adrian Mole or Bridget Jones for the first time. ' Joanna Nadin, author of The Queen of Bloody Everything ' A sweet, fizzy sherbet dib-dab of a book - deliciously nostalgic, hugely funny and ultimately heartwarming. The perfect book for our times. ' Veronica Henry ' Such a joyful and uplifting read. Just the sort of thing that people will want to be reading right now. ' Anita Rani, Radio 2 Book Club ' Full of fabulous characters, sprinkled with joy and drenched in wit. ' Milly Johnson Ten years on from the events of The Miseducation of Evie Epworth, Evie is settled in London and working as a production assistant for the BBC. She has everything she ever dreamed of (a career, a leatherette briefcase, an Ossie Clark poncho) but, following an unfortunate incident involving a Hornsea Pottery mug and Princess Anne, she finds herself having to rethink her future. What can she do? Is she too old to do it? And will it involve cork-soled sandals? As if this isn' t complicated enough, her disastrous love life leaves her worrying that she may be destined for eternal spinsterdom, concerned, as she is, that ' even Paul had married Linda by the time he was 26' . Through it all, Evie is left wondering whether a 60s miseducation really is the best preparation to glide into womanhood and face the new challenges (strikes, power cuts, Edward Heath' s teeth) thrown up by the growing pains of the 70s. With the help of friends, both old and new, she might just find a way through her messy 20s and finally discover who exactly she is meant to be. . .
