Georgy Girl

Georgy is young, gregarious and fun – she is also large, self-confessedly ugly and desperate for love…

Georgy bears her fate bravely as she alternates between playing the fool and humbling herself before Meredith, her pretty, callous flatmate, although when James, middle-aged socialite and self-imposed “Uncle’, asks Georgy to become his mistress, she is tempted to accept. Then Meredith announces she is pregnant and jos, the expectant father, decides he is in love with Georgy…

As she struggles through a maze of conflicting demands and emotions, Georgy discovers that sex, a man and marriage are not everything and that life has other alternatives on offer.
