Philip Hensher

Elizabeth Taylor

The soul of kindness is what Flora believes herself to be. Tall, blonde and beautiful, she appears to have everything under control - her home, her baby, her husband Richard; her friend Meg; Kit, Meg's brother, who has always adored Flora; and Patrick the novelist and domestic pet. All are bewitched by this golden tyrant, all conspire to protect her from what she really is. All, that is, except the bohemian painter Liz: it is left to her to show them that Flora's kindness is the sweetest poison of them all.
