Generation Apart, A

Whereas most people barely bat an eyelid when a middle-aged man becomes romantically involved with a girl more than thirty years his junior, a mid¬dle-aged woman who takes on a youth that much younger than her is accused of having a ‘toy boy’. Wendy Forsyth finds herself in that exact pre¬dicament when she finds herself seriously attracted to a neighbour’s son while giving him extra maths lessons. The story describes her fears, worries and emotions in detail as she battles with her unusual conundrum. You’ll likely experience a mixture of reactions as you follow what transpires – at times sympathy with her plight but, at others, criticism of her ac¬tions. But, whatever your response, you’ll find it a fascinating read.
