About
"This is the story of Bella, who woke up one morning and realised she'd had enough..."
So begins Dirty Weekend, one woman's tale of fear and revenge. Dark, violent and brutally funny, Dirty Weekend was hugely controversial when first published in 1991. Although it polarised the critics on release, it went on to be translated into thirteen languages, became a UK and European bestseller, and was made into a feature film
by Michael Winner, director of Death Wish.
Blackly comic, hugely violent and wholly original, it still retains its impact today.
