Clara Hutt, the heroine of the modern urban novel My Life on a Plate, has everything a woman could want: beauty and independence, a good job and moderately terrible children, an attractive and mysterious husband and a pack of slightly crazy but charming relatives and girlfriends. And yet she clearly lacks something. In her powerful debut book, India Knight attempts to answer the age-old question: What does a woman want? Women are obsessed creatures, they are obsessed with their own weight, the affairs of their friends, their appearance, but above all, they are obsessed with love. Or her search. This is what Clara is doing - she is looking for love, sometimes in the most unpredictable places. For example, among ballet dancers, who are famous for their unconventionality in terms of love. “My Life on a Plate” is a surprisingly funny, sometimes caustic, but at the same time romantic book about love and its search in our strange days.
