Book Synopsis

The extraordinary and unconventional life of a modern teenage bohemian.



Trade Review

‘Like a trunk full of exotic jewels… Dolce Vita is charming, seductive and somehow redolent of a more gracious age. Una, the sixteen-year-old heroine, is living it up in Paris at the end of the 1980s. The mistress of an ageing record producer, she is pursued at every turn by unsuitable sexual possiblities. On a permanent quest for romantic love and food, she finds little of either, living almost entirely on Gauloise cigarettes and Burger King meals while making lists of luxuries she can’t afford… Irresistible’
Marie Claire Book of the Month

‘Una is a striking heroine: a teenage nymphet who could out-flirt Lolita, living a life that is movie-star glamorous in a garret in Paris… Graceful, elegant and deeply seductive, Teran’s debut is as delicious and decadent as the film from which its name is taken’
