Sally-Anne Hayes Livres

Cross-stitch interpretations of Parisian moments captured in a photo.

In her early sixties Fiona Sinclair decided to become a 'biker-chick'. Despite the disapproval of her friends and her own anxieties, she suddenly found herself in 'full biker armour', doing a ton down the M2, the wind in her hair, learning to lean into the corners. Greedy Cow is a book about new lovers and old habits, first dates and second chances, Espresso highs and gourmet sex, in which riding pillion is a metaphor for the risks of love and desire in middle-age - speed, danger and reckless adventure, his 'Steve McQueen cool', and her 'disobedient body'.
