18th December: Picador's favourite parties

Posted By Rosanna Boscawen on Tuesday 18th Dec 2012
 

This year we published Suzette Field's A Curious Invitation: The Forty Greatest Parties in Literature. Parties are at the heart of literature, they're where the drama happens; this book is a compendium of who was there, what they wore, what was eaten and who said what to whom. In tribute to all the festivities in the book, we've asked our authors to tell us a little about their best parties, real and fictional.

DECEMBER 1995
When I woke up in the trunk of Sam Couples’ latest Land Rover the damn thing was already moving, presumably being driven by the man himself. Using the corner of a picnic blanket I wiped encrusted spit from my chin and cheek.

I was absolutely thrilled to receive this lovely quote for John Butler’s forthcoming novel, the Tenderloin, last week...
