"What did you say your new book is called?" people say to me. "Zulu's Pedals?"
"No," I say. "Zuzu's Petals. Z-U-Z-U apostrophe S, space, P-E-T-A-L-S."
"Who is Zuzu? Is she the woman in the book?"
"No. It's an allusion to something in a film."
"What are you on about?"
The poster on the wall of my newly pretty, pristine study gives you a clue.
(The hardback comes out in May, but you can pre-order it now on Amazon.co.uk with a generous price reduction. Amazon.com will be onstream soon.)
