Title: EVERYBODY'S GOT TROUBLE
Review: This is a slim volume to hold so much satire, yet it does. Followers of Fay Weldon's tragic/comic chronicles of dour domestic bliss will find the author again coming through with wry.Living in London with her husband, Spicer, and their two children from former marriages, Annette Horrocks appears to have everything any woman could wish - her first novel will soon be published and she is expecting a baby. But, in true Weldonesque fashion, this idyll unravels.Possessing a sharp eye and an equally sharp pen, the author seems to have more of a following among women than men. That should be the case with Trouble, yet Weldon surprises as it isn't only a woman's story.The author of some twenty novels and short story collections, Weldon has the ability to make the banal sharply bright and everyday experiences stand out in bold dramatic relief. She's not a sexist - she skewers the foibles of both men and women with equal aplomb.
