Poolbeg, 2000, 595 pag. Pocket, leesvouwen in platten, verder goed.
Katherine, tara, and fintan moved to london together from their small irish hometown and have remained best friends into their early *30s, even though they seem to have little in common. Overly self-controlled katherine comes across as an ice queen. In fact, that*s her less-than-flattering nickname at the advertising firm where she is an accountant. When a fellow worker gently flirts with her, katherine is so afraid of her own feelings that she accuses him of sexual harassment. Tara is katherine*s opposite: desperate for affection, she clings to her boyfriend thomas despite his consistently rude and unpleasant behavior. Softhearted tara also eats compulsively. (Keyes perfectly captures the overweight overeater*s mindset.) Only fintan, who is gay and in the fashion industry, natch, has found happiness and true love with sandro, *the italian pony* (he*s too small to be a stallion). Then fintan becomes seriously ill. It*s not aids, but with a cancer that requires intensive chemotherapy. Fintan*s mother and brothers arrive from ireland and stay in katherine*s apartment, disrupting her perfect order, while thomas refuses even to accompany tara to the hospital. Possibly near death*s door, fintan exacts promises from his friends to bring some happiness into their lives. He wants tara to dump the awful thomas and katherine to take a chance with her office suitor, the charming and genuinely nice joe roth. Meanwhile, their very sophisticated swedish friend liv falls madly in love with fintan*s very unsophisticated older brother milo, a farmer who has never seen an escalator until now. Will tara leave thomas and get back to a size eight? Will katherine cheat herself out of her big chance for romantic happiness? Will fintan recover? Will milo move back to the farm?
