“All the Best Parties” – The Author's Take on the Novel and Its Making

Tony Woodcock's first book, “All the Best Parties,” has just been published and he warmly acknowledges the work of our very own Sandra Molyneaux as his expert editor in its production. The book takes us into the scorching drama behind the scenes of an opera company; the arias, the fabulous sets, celebrities and social glitter!
