CULTURE | VG LEE
Since discovering a knack for writing in her 40s, VG Lee has been creating hilarious, critically acclaimed novels and short stories. Her fifth book, Mr Oliver’s Object Of Desire, features her trademark sense of humour, along with an impeccably dressed but rather odious straight male protagonist. Don’t worry – there are still plenty of colourful queer characters and a lesbian love story in the mix. After devouring this beautifully crafted and thoroughly engrossing novel, I couldn’t wait to find out more.
DIVA: I read in the acknowledgements that Mr Oliver’s Object Of Desire was 23 years in the making.
