Employing her customary razor-like humour, Morag Prunty introduces a host of characters whose lives have been chewed up and spat out by the harsh, celebrity-obsessed world. There s Molly, a lonely 20-something, who trudges to the newsagents every day for her fix of VIP, OK!, Hello - anything to give her life a much-needed injection of glamour.

There s Alfie, burned-out boyband member who s kissed the good times goodbye and is now all washed up.

There s Corinne, damaged former lover of Mal, Ireland s biggest-ever rock export.

And then there s Helen, his long-suffering wife.

In her inimitable way, Morag Prunty introduces a tableau of fascinating characters and gives them a sprinkle of magic dust in this witty dissection of the vagaries of fame and celebrity.
