Las reglas de la vida

Synopsis of Las reglas de la vida

«Las reglas de la vida» is the novel by Fay Weldon, published by Edhasa in hardback (138 pages, in Spanish).

After her death, Gabriella Sumpter reviews her lost loves and discovers that many rules she took for granted were not true. With irony and acid humour, the novel combines that personal memory with satire of a religion that records the voices of the deceased, and reflects on marriage, monogamy and ethics.

The Spanish translation is by Horacio González Trejo, with illustrations by Amanda Faulkner. The work was originally published as The Rules of Life.

For readers of contemporary British fiction and social satire with a female voice.
