À propos de ce contenu audio
When housewife Mitzy Barlow starts hosting Tupperware parties one grey afternoon in 1969, she has no idea of the power it has to transform lives.
It is necessity that has led her here: when her husband's carpentry hours drop, so too does their family income, forcing Mitzy to take matters into her own hands to support their young children.
But if it is necessity that drives her to start, it is freedom that keeps her going.
Because Mitzy has a talent for something else: writing erotic stories. And when she starts selling those stories alongside her Tupperware containers - slipping them inside her products to protect them from prying eyes - her parties suddenly become known for more than just plastic: now, they are about liberation.
She was once just Mitzy, trapped in a loveless marriage - now she is Queen B, leader of a covert revolution.
That is until rumours of her actions start to put her family at risk. Is Mitzy naïve to think she could ever change her fortunes? Or can she rewrite the ending of her own story, before it's too late?

What a celebration of female desire and empowerment. I loved Mitzy Barlow so much, and her Tupperware camouflaged storytelling brought me great joy . . . a must read (Jennie Godfrey)
A humorous take on motherhood, sisterhood and feminism, you'll never look at Tupperware the same again (Bonnie Garmus)
Uplifting, powerful and full of joy, Wet Ink hits all the right spots. A triumphant celebration of women winning, of community and independence (Sarah Winman)
Refreshing and powerful - a book that made me rage and cheer in equal measure, with characters that will stay with me. A brilliant, big impact book (Cressida McLaughlin)
Utterly captivating! A deeply empowering read that transcends generations and leaves you energised to reclaim your power, voice and life. Abigail Avis writes with inimitable eloquence, weaving a story of sisterhood, audacity and liberation that lingers long after the last page. Wet Ink is unforgettable (Michelle Elman)
Moving, charming, and inspiring. Wet Ink is a celebration of female courage, creativity and the power of writing your own story (Louise O’Neill)
Lessons in Chemistry meets Masters of Sex . . . readers across the generations will find a heroine to root for in Mitzy Barlow. Uplifting, thought-provoking and fresh (it's about Tupperware, after all) (Niamh Hargan)
A dazzling novel about a resourceful a woman who transforms her claustrophobic everyday into a provocative and empowering future, Wet Ink is mischievous, hilarious, and deliciously fun. The community Mitzy Barlow creates will have you calling your friends to schedule a book club, a (spicy?) supper club, or even, maybe, a Tupperware party. If you love Annie Hartnett, Bonnie Garmus, or Kevin Wilson, prepare to meet your next obsession: Abigail Avis. (Katy Hays)
I read Wet Ink in one afternoon. It's so much fun, so gripping and genuinely moving as well. If you liked Lessons in Chemistry you'll love this - which is about as high a piece of praise as I can give. Just brilliant. (Sophie Irwin)
'Abigail Avis has deftly and confidently entered the historical fiction sphere with a blockbuster that I quite literally could not put down . . . Through the 1960s women of her tale, Avis delivers a heartfelt, political, and important read (with a touch of spice!) that is only too relevant to modern-day readers, who will be cheering on its achingly relatable heroine. Insightful, at times infuriating, and wildly entertaining, Wet Ink is a breath of fresh air for every reader who has ever felt stifled by the parameters of motherhood. A cathartic triumph of a novel' (Heather Marshall)
The best exposé of Sixties sexual politics this side of Surbiton, combining tongue-in-cheek spice with a poignant dissection of marriage. A genius, entertaining read (Jo Leevers)
A gorgeously readable and community spirited novel full of the spirit of rebellion. Brava (Georgina Moore)
