We are working with the lovely author Roberta Aarons, author of previously acclaimed ‘My Grandfather’s False Teeth’, and current novel ‘Slippers in the Oven’. Both of which give rise to her title as the ‘Queen of the Silly Title’.
We met up with Roberta for a chat, about her current book and writing in general…
We are enthralled to be working with esteemed writer and Queen of the ‘silly titles’ Roberta Aarons. Roberta released the acclaimed ‘My Grandfather’s False Teeth‘ in 2010.
Her latest offering ‘Slippers in the Oven’, is receiving rave reviews, too. Being described as “Cleverly written, a brilliant read.”; “a wonderful, funny, sad and relatable story that goes straight to the heart“; a book that will have you “howling with laughter one minute… then weeping tears“.
We have selected an extract from the book, to whet your appetite… enjoy!
This is the second novel from Roberta Aarons, following the success of her first book ‘My Grandfather’s False Teeth’.
After Emma, a successful career woman, steals the husband of her younger sister Ann, a comfortable stay-at-home mother, they are estranged for many years. Reunited again at his funeral and carried away by the emotion of the moment, they impulsively decide to go on holiday together.
