The darkly hilarious sequel to The War of the Roses. The Children of the Roses in typical Adler black comedy fashion deals with the impact of the Rose's horrific demise as described in The War of the Roses on their children and their grandchildren. The Roses children, Josh who is now married to Victoria and his hugely overweight happy-go-lucky sister Evie, who has not married but finds pleasure at the trough and through a series of live-in lovers. Considering the experience of Josh Rose and his bride, Victoria, also the victim of parental mayhem, theirs should be a perfect marriage. Instead, they find themselves in a different kind of shattering warfare. The overstuffed and ever-sympathetic Evie and Victoria's demonic and ever-sympathetic, male hating mother are their constant counterfoils. Throw in a suave headmaster who turns out to be a relentless sexual predator and blackmailing mobster-type husband and the stage is set for a rollicking nasty fun little tale.Adler, Warren is the author of 'Children of the Roses' with ISBN 9781402201974 and ISBN 1402201974.
