Bloomsbury presents The Revenge Club written and read by Kathy Lette.

'Fast moving and frothing with the fun kind of female fury' JO BRAND

WHEN THE ODDS ARE AGAINST YOU, IT'S TIME TO GET EVEN.

Matilda, Jo, Penny and Cressy are all women at the top of their game; so imagine their surprise when they start to be personally overlooked and professionally pushed aside by less-qualified men.

Only they’re not going down without a fight.

Society might think the women have passed their amuse-by dates but the Revenge Club have other plans.

After all, why go to bed angry when you could stay up and plot diabolical retribution? Let the games begin...

Reseñas de la Crítica

Like champagne with a pie chaser. Sparkling and surprisingly satisfying (Penny Smith)

As always, she's witty and gritty and surprises at every turn. "Nine to Five" meets the "First Wives Club" in this gripping story of revenge (Ruby Wax)

Kathy Lette's razzle-dazzle charm, humour and versatility sometimes obscure the seriously impressive achievement of this girl from the Shire: For fifty years now, she has articulated - with outrageous candour and an infallibly observant eye - the best and worst bits of being female. The Revenge Club is erotic fan fiction for the peri-menopausal. But amid all the hilarity and blood-Letteing (see what I did there?) there beats a solid reminder that female friendships are the love affairs that never dim. (Annabel Crabb)

Sometimes dark, often rude and always sparkling. A total tonic (Adele Parks, Platinum)

A poolside read that will have you chuckling into your cocktails... full of wit and slapstick moments, the story also has a moving twist that reinforces the serious subtext - sometimes women just have to come together and give the patriarchy a kick in the proverbial. Bravo! (Woman & Home)

Female power forever even to the death of a plot

Too much “men are universally evil” in the plot. Witty wording is what kept me listening. It could have ben better and maintained the tension so that you didn’t predictably know the next move if it wasn’t to male demonizing.

Really wish it had been better

I wholeheartedly support the author and see what she was trying to accomplish, but it was a little too cookie cutter very safe and really didn’t bring the characters to life. This is a hard demographic to write for I am 54 so I get you don’t have as much to pull from because so many of the topics that motivated character and give it depth has already occurred with these characters because of their age. I really would’ve liked to have seen, her show all the really truly cool things about the later part of a woman’s life. She did try but it never really worked.
