Dear Reader, When I read a novel, I want to be entertained, but I also want to be left with something to think about after I've finished it. That's what I've tried to provide in my new novel, A GIRL'S GUIDE TO MODERN EUROPEAN PHILOSOPHY. My heroine, Susannah Jones, is a young philosophy student who is enjoying the social and sexual freedom of 1970s university life until an unplanned pregnancy lands her in an impossible dilemma. Forced to look beyond her friends and lovers for support, she turns to her philosophy books for advice, finding help and inspiration in the lessons of Nietzsche, Kierkegaard, and others. This is an affectionate coming-of-age story that I hope you'll find funny and moving, but it's also an introduction to the great thinkers of our time, and shows how philosophy can sometimes help us to make important moral choices in our lives. To enter to win one of five free copies or to request a call-in to your book club, please contact me at mwalker@otherpress.com. All best wishes, Charlotte |
