A scathing satire of an image-conscious society, Fay Weldons The Life and Loves of a She-Devil is the story of Ruth, an graceless, unattractive woman. Trapped in a loveless marriage with a cruelly indifferent, philandering husband named Bobbo, Ruth finds herself sinking under the weight of crushed expectations and neglect. But rather than simply accept her lot in life, Ruth decides to embrace the feelings of evil that are welling inside of her and transform herself into an avenging she-devil. The result is an often hilarious black comedy with a powerful message about love and superficiality.
