'A telling portrait of an older man after a miserable divorce... a well-observed portrait of middle-class London life for the older single man. It's hilariously funny' Saga

'At once eloquent and entertaining, intelligent and incisive... Novels don't come more diverting or sublimely satirical than this' Tatler

Jomier has reached the age of retirement, his children are grown up and his wife, after having an affair, has left him. Embittered and humiliated, he lives alone in London, mourning the disintegration of his marriage as he broods about the past and the present.

When he falls for Judith, things begin to improve. Yet he still cannot escape his old habits and it is only when his daughter falls ill that he begins to reassess his feelings towards those he loves and his ability to forgive.

Darkly humorous, ruthlessly satirical and surprisingly moving, The Misogynist is a perceptive exploration of the ways in which we can unintentionally let past disappointments affect our present, and how difficult it can be to move forward.
