Liv Kellerman is 26, newly divorced, and has just lost the love of her life. Her husband? You've got to be kidding. It's her apartment she's in mourning for - her lovely penthouse apartment with its Empire State Building view. On her own for the first time in her life, Liv is forced to relocate to a crumbling Greenwich Village hovel, but things are about to get a lot worse. She's about to become an estate agent.

Belle's gift for creating eccentric and winning characters, and her acute observations of both the absurd and the poignant in everyday life, are the hallmarks of her fiction. HIGH MAINTENANCE is generous and unsparing, tough and exciting and terrifically smart - a hot new property on the market.

Recensione:

Terrifying and hilarious. (ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY)

Sharp, incisive and laugh-out-loud funny (BALTIMORE SUN)

The day Liv Kellerman left her cheating husband, he thought to reassure her by saying: "I still think you're beautiful. This morning, when I woke up, I looked at you under the covers, and I prayed you wouldn't wake up and start speaking" ... hugely funny (NEW YORK DAILY NEWS)

Brimming with weird but lovable characters, Belle's second novel is a witty and engaging tale of love and real estate in Manhattan ... Belle's tongue-in-cheek style and laugh-out-loud antics keep the pages turning ... fresh and invigorating (PUBLISHERS WEEKLY)
