Do you like Champagne? That beautiful, crisp promise of something wonderful about to happen as it circles your mouth? Well The Rules of Civility is it's literary equal. Refreshing yet intoxicating, delicious but goes straight to your head. It tells of Katey Kontent's unequalled year in New York in 1938. Part Gatsby, part Catcher in the Rye, part a new dazzling voice - it is a cocktail worth enjoying, read it now before it gets diluted into a film, but don't blame me if you, Tardis like, want to spin back in time to the 30's in New York.
