Babyville

Julia is stuck in a loveless relationship with Mark and can't remember why she ever got together with him in the first place. She thinks a baby might help but is that really the answer to her problems?

Maeve is happy in her career and happy in her life. The word `commitment' isn't even in her vocabulary. Monogamy and motherhood couldn't be further from her mind. But when a one-night stand leaves her facing an unwanted pregnancy, she is forced to take another look at her life and begins to wonder whether it is as unwanted as she thought.

Samantha and Chris are struggling to come to terms with the effects of parenthood on their marriage. Samantha adores her baby but isn't prepared for the loneliness of motherhood and Chris has difficulty coping with the fact that her attention is no longer focused on him. Is her obsession with her child as healthy as it seems?

BABYVILLE is about people and their relationships and the effect that having children, or not, can have on their lives. With this book Jane Green's writing has moved to a new level.
