Highly Unsuitable Girl
There were always two very different sides to
Anya Cave.
Some who knew her when she was young saw
an intelligent, attractive
girl who would go far
but always too close to the surface
was the
uglier Anya;
promiscuous, self-obsessed and manipulative.
Despite her self-willed drive to better herself,
the course of Anya's
life is determined by a
succession of mistakes whose roots lie
in the
unfortunate circumstances of her birth.
A successful career and financial security are meaningless
as her middle
years are wasted in a loveless second marriage.
It is only after Anya
marries for a third time
that she finds some purpose in her life.
But nothing in Anya's life lasts long
and when her
circumstances change yet again
she despairs of finding the peace of mind
that
seems always to elude her.
At her lowest ebb
she meets three men
from very different stages of her
life
who separately make her face up to
how she has misjudged others
and
how much she has misunderstood about herself.
Only then can she identify which Anya is the winner
in her lifelong
battle
between the woman she has been
and the person she wants to be.
Cover
The photograph used on the book cover was taken by the
author from her then home.
It is late May and the sun is
about to set behind the church in Ludlow, Shropshire.
The book, however, is not set in Ludlow, nor does it refer to Ludlow, but as you read the book the author hopes you understand why the image is relevant.
High quality copies of this photograph are available.
