Now a motion picture starring Robin Wright Penn, Juliane Moore, Monica Belluci, Keanu Reeves, Winona Ryder and Alan Arkin.Pippa Lee has everything. She is the wife of a brilliant publisher, the mother of successful twins, adored by her friends. It's not the life she thought she would have when she was seventeen, but then who could have imagined her transformation-from a world of experimentation with sex and drugs, to buzzing lawnmowers and suburban coffee mornings.But is this perfect life enough? When her husband-thirty years her senior-plans for their retirement, she finds her old self starting to rebel, jeopardising everything she has. The Private Lives of Pippa Lee is a story about women and the masks they wear. It is a story about unexpected encounters, affairs and betrayals, and the dangerous security of marriage.'Miller is a luminous writer...gazing into these multiple private Pippas is like opening a series of Russian dolls, each intricately wrought, self-contained and self-revealing.'
