On the surface, Violet Parry has it all - a wealthy and successful husband; a beautiful, not to mention much wanted and tried for, baby; and a dream Neutra-designed, $10m house in the Hollywood Hills - but this one-time "Ultra Violet", powerhouse screenwriter who's since been "felled" by motherhood now only wants one thing: the ex-junkie, jobbing bass player, Teddy Reyes... a warm, witty comedy with plenty of heart. (Lucy Scholes THE INDEPENDENT)
Last year many of us fell in love with Maria Semple's Where'd You Go, Bernadette... It is just as easy to fall for Semple's exuberant prose in her first novel, This One is Mine... The dialogue zings... Semple also has a gift for describing physical comedy (THE TIMES)

Reseña del editor
The sparkling debut novel of Maria Semple, author of the WOMEN'S PRIZE FOR FICTION-shortlisted WHERE'D YOU GO, BERNADETTE, including reading group notes.
Violet Parry is living the quintessential life of luxury in the Hollywood Hills with David, her rock-and-roll manager husband, and her darling toddler, Dot. She has the perfect life - but she's deeply unhappy.
David expects the world of Violet but gives little of himself in return. When she meets Teddy, a roguish small-time bass player, Violet comes alive, and soon she's risking everything for the chance to find herself again. Also in the picture are David's hilariously high-strung sister, Sally, on the prowl for a successful husband, and Jeremy, the sportscaster savant who falls into her trap.
