rating 32,431 Ratings For readers of Modern Lovers and Conversations with Friends, an addictive, humorous, and poignant debut novel about the shock waves caused by one couple's impulsive marriage.
Their wedding is peopled by the book’s supporting cast, who include Quentin, Cleo’s gender-confused trustafarian pal who secretly thinks they’re soulmates Zoe, Frank’s financially dependent baby sister and Anders, Frank’s ‘will shag any woman who walks’ best mate. Cleopatra and Frankenstein by Coco Mellors 3.88 avg. Witty repartee and frantic snogging out of the way, they marry a few months later. She’s a beautiful British artist twenty years his junior, with long blonde hair and a visa that’s about to expire. He’s a fortysomething ad agency boss who drinks more than he should, weathering the disappointment of giving up his creative dreams to make money. That’s true at least for Cleopatra and Frankenstein, a positively inhalable debut by Coco Mellors about the fallout of a snap marriage between an older man and a younger woman.įrank and Cleo are at a trendy New Year’s Eve party in New York when they meet by chance in a lift. But they do make quite fun novels, as it turns out.
found herself on Goodreads (the enemy of novelists) stumbling upon criticism. I think we can all agree: quick marriages between people who barely know one another are not a good idea. Cleopatra and Frankenstein is about to be all over your Instagram feed. New West End Company BRANDPOST | PAID CONTENT.
