Women's Fiction
It's the start of another school year at St. Ambrose. While
the children are busy in the classroom, their mothers are
learning sharper lessons. Lessons in friendship. Lessons in
betrayal. Lessons in the laws of community, the transience
of power...and how to get invited to lunch. Beatrice -- undisputed queen bee. Ruler, by Divine Right, of
all school fundraising, this year, last year, and, surely,
for many to come. Heather -- desperate to volunteer, desperate to be noticed,
desperate to belong. Georgie -- desperate for a cigarette. And Rachel -- watching them all, keeping her distance. But
soon to discover taht the line between amused observer and
miserable outcast is a thin one. THE HIVE is a wickedly funny and brilliantly observed story
about female friendship, power plays, and the joys and
perils (well, mainly perils) of trying to do one's part.
