Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:In this eye-popping first novel--a bestseller in both the United States and Australia--Linda Jaivin invites readers to overhear what women really talk about when they talk about sex. When four bright, successful friends meet in Sydney's designer cafés and restaurants to gossip about their romantic exploits, the talk sizzles. Julia, Chantal, Helen, and Phillipa are the best of friends. Professionally, their lives could not be more different, but whenever they get together, there are always plenty of intimate revelations to dish up and devour. Julia is a spunky photographer with a penchant for Peking duck and younger men; Chantal is a fashion magazine editor whose sexual preferences give new meaning to the words "mixing and matching"; Helen is a feminist scholar whose outward wholesomeness belies her inner naughtiness; and Phillipa is a somewhat secretive writer who appears to be taking rather close notes on her friends' raunchy tales. This outrageous, irresistible, and utterly original debut, which led Entertainment Weekly to call Jaivin "one of the 100 most creative people in entertainment," is the juiciest book you will read this year. Synopsis:A comic, erotic, and supremely witty first novel, "Eat Me" follows the lives and sexual exploits of four successful and intelligent Australian women. A major bestseller in Australia — and swiftly sold in six countries (Holland, Brazil, Italy, Portugal, Israel, and Germany) since Broadway acquired it — this shockingly graphic but very clever novel was a sensation when we published it here as a hardcover. With her brilliant wit and silky prose, Linda Jaivin has created a world in which she prays havoc with ideas about truth, sex, and power. After "Eat Me" — now in paperback — lust, laughter, sexual politics, and figs will never seem the same again. About the AuthorLinda Jaivin is a freelance writer and translator. Her journalism has appeared in a wide range of publications, including Australian Rolling Stone and Australian New Woman. Raised in New London, Connecticut, and educated at Brown University, she worked and studied in Taiwan, Hong Kong, and mainland China before settling permanently in Sydney, Australia.
