Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0452285895, Paperback)From the bestselling author of Azur Like it and Farm Fatale comes a domestic comedy set in the world of coupledom and new parenthoodBath, England—the swanky town once home to ancient Roman spas and Jane Austen heroines—is the setting for this brilliant new novel. Birthing class brings together two sets of expectant parents, who couldn’t be more different. Hugo and his spoiled wife Amanda plan to throw money at the problems of parenthood, making use of private hospitals and nurses, while environmentally friendly Jake and Alice have arranged a home-delivery complete with birthing pool and whale music. When Amanda decides she’s not cut out for motherhood and Hugo must look elsewhere for a sympathetic ear, the couples are inextricably drawn together once again, resulting in hilarious social comedy, as only Wendy Holden can write it. “Fans of her writing know that Holden’s skill, wit, and aplomb make her stand out in the oft-sugary genre.” “Holden is very good indeed.” (retrieved from Amazon Fri, 24 Apr 2009 07:58:16 -0400) The first test round has been closed.
