About this product

Product Information

THE DUD AVOCADO gained instant cult status on first publication and remains a timeless portrait of a woman hellbent on living. It is, as the GUARDIAN observes, 'one of the best novels about growing up fast'. Sally Jay Gorce is a woman with a mission. It's the 1950s, she's young, and she's in Paris. Having dyed her hair pink, she wears evening dresses in the daytime and vows to go native in a way not even the natives can manage. Embarking on an educational programme that includes an affair with a married man (which fizzles out when she realises he's single and wants to marry her); nights in cabarets and jazz clubs in the company of assorted citizens of the world ; an entanglement with a charming psychopath; and a bit part in a film financed by a famous matador. But an education like this doesn't come cheap. Will our heroine be forced back to the States to fulfill her destiny as a librarian, or can she keep up her whirlwind Parisian existence

    Ordered on the 20th arrived on the 24th so very fast. Ordered several books all came as described it great packaging. Had to return one item as ordered by mistake. This was very easy and quick as well. Would definitely use this seller again.

    The item was fine. Delivery was a mess. The item description didn't specify the courier, so I chose the 'Click and Collect' option, at a local garage. The seller used Yodel - always a worry. Yodel sent me an email saying they had delivered the item to my front porch - but I couldn't see it. Luckily they had delivered to the garage, and simply didn't know what they had done. Potential customers should be aware of how items will likely be delivered. I shan't buy from this seller again.

    These are fabulous books. I’m using them to help my autistic granddaughter understand, in a gentle way, how others are affected by her meltdowns. Delivery was very fast, books as described and in perfect condition. Item was well packaged. These books are great value and an excellent tool for all parents/guardians. Great seller.
