The Dud Avocado -Elaine Dundy
THE DUD AVOCADO gained instant cult status on first publication and remains a timeless portrait of a woman hellbent on living. It is, as the GUARDIAN observes, `one of the best novels about growing up fast`.Sally Jay Gorce is a woman with a mission. It`s the 1950s, she`s young, and she`s in Paris. Having dyed her hair pink, she wears evening dresses in the daytime and vows to go native in a way not even the natives can manage. Embarking on an educational programme that includes an affair with a married man (which fizzles out when she realises he`s single and wants to marry her); nights in cabarets and jazz clubs in the company of assorted `citizens of the world`; an entanglement with a charming psychopath; and a bit part in a film financed by a famous matador. But an education like this doesn`t come cheap. Will our heroine be forced back to the States to fulfill her destiny as a librarian, or can she keep up her whirlwind Parisian existence?
