The Shoe Princess’s Guide to the Galaxy – Emma Bowd

Posted on April 30th, 2009 by Jarvis in Fiction

Do you ever get the feeling that your sparkly red slippers might be sliding over the edge of the yellow brick road? Thirty-something shoe-worshipper Jane Meadows knows it only too well.

Shoe Princess's Guide to the Galaxy by Emma Bowd, ISBN 9780747594048

Overwhelmed by the realities of first-time motherhood and disillusioned with the corporate world, Jane trades in her Manolos for nappies, nipple shields and the foot spread of a yeti: a lifestyle choice her man-eating girlfriend, Rachel, thinks is taking retro chic just one step too far. Unlike the lovely Liz, who’d give anything to be in Jane’s pram shoes. Desperate to reconnect with the outside world, Jane finds salvation in her local New Mothers Group, a nonagenarian neighbour, and a royal duo of bloggers dedicated to shoes and behind-the-scenes celebrity gossip. Meanwhile, her unlucky-in-love best friend, Fi, thinks she’s found THE one – Marco. Should Jane be concerned that Marco is a handsome, intelligent, Italian shoe designer with a passion for teaching his craft to bored housewives? Or that her work-focussed husband is spending increasingly long hours at the office.

A heart-warming and timeless tale of the transition from career-girl to new mum, The Shoe Princess’s Guide to the Galaxy is a sassy and sparkling debut about one modern woman’s attempts to put her best foot forward.
