REVIEWS
PICK OF THE WEEK The Dinner Party by Viola van de Sandt is published in hardback by Tinder Press, priced £20 (ebook £8.99). Available now ★★★★☆ Franca is a dropout from a prestigious Dutch university who, after a close friendship turns sour, uproots her life and moves to London's South Kensington with the charming and wealthy Andrew. Struggling to find her place in this new world, simmering tensions and repressed traumas collide one cataclysmic evening when she is asked at late notice to pull together an extravagant dinner party on a sweltering summer night, with booze boosting the belligerence beyond boiling point. Viola van de Sandt's debut novel is a powerful, provocative and often cringingly confronting study of female rage unleashed. Franca's intoxicating tale is often darkly funny despite the subject matter, so, while there is plenty of discomfort in staying the course of this nightmarish soiree, you will want to stick around for the big twist that arrives before dessert.
