Book SynopsisThe modern classic that changed the way we thought about sex
Bigamy is having one husband too many. Monogamy is the same' - Anonymous (a woman)
Compulsive daydreamer Isadora Wing has come to a crossroads. Five years of marriage have made her itchy itchy for men, and itchy for solitude.
Ditching her second husband during a work conference in Vienna she decides to cut and run, criss-crossing her way across Europe in search of the perfect no-strings-attached tryst and she won't let a little thing like a fear of flying get in her way.
Witty, fearless and exuberant, Fear of Flying remains as sensational today as when it was first published.
