Auto Da Fay

Fay Weldon, one of the pre-eminent writers of our times, has crammed more than most into her years. From the 1930s to the 2000s, Weldon has seen and lived it all. As a child in New Zealand, as young and poor in London, as unmarried mother, as wife, lover, novelist, feminist, antifeminist, there are few waterfronts that she hasn't covered, few battles she hasn't fought.
