Description: The Bulgari Connection is the latest book by critically acclaimed author Fay Weldon, whom People magazine calls "wickedly funny". Once again she draws us into a wild, rollicking tale full of her trademark satirical wit and sharp observation. Grace McNab Salt is the recently divorced wife of millionaire Barley Salt, who has since married Doris Dubois, the young, slim host of TV's Arts World Extra. Grace has just emerged from jail, where she was sent for trying to run Doris over with her Jaguar in a supermarket parking lot in an act of revenge. All three attend a London charity ball held by socialite Lady Juliet, where painter Walter Wells auctions off a portrait of Juliet wearing a necklace crafted by the world-famous Bulgari jewelers and Doris, mad with envy, quickly declares that she must have it. As Doris goes to extremes to obtain the necklace, Grace falls into a mad love affair with the painter of the necklace, Barley tries to keep from buying Doris the necklace, and everyone's lives turn upside down.

Weldon's world is one of relationships: torrid affairs, lovers' spite, and revenge. Full of clever women, breathless romance, insistent desires, and even a dose of the supernatural, The Bulgari Connection is a boisterously witty and stylish novel.
