The Long Hot Summer - Mary Moody

Mary Moody was previously better known as a gardening show presenter on Australian TV and for her gardening books! This is her third book about her life, which has captured Australians' emotions! In 'Au Revoir' she escaped to a 6 month sabbatical in beautiful rural France. In 'Last Tango in Toulouse' her world turned upside down. Now, continuing in her candid style, she bares all as her marriage faces its most intense challenge. After reading the first two, I wondered how the author would be able to continue to hold the reader's interest in the third book, but it was as absorbing and involving. I find her painful honesty refreshing and empathise with her as well as her husband.
