		The family saga is a genre of literature which chronicles the lives and doings of a family or a number of related or interconnected families over a period of time.
		In novels (or sometimes sequences of novels) with a serious intent, this is often a thematic device used to portray particularly historical events, changes of social circumstances, or the ebb and flow of fortunes from a multiplicity of perspectives.
		The typical family saga follows generations of a family through a period of history in a series of novels.

		Her families, where individuals are "as intermittently sympathetic and slap-worthy as people are in real life," often painfully navigate the fallout from the affairs of a wife with her female childminder, a husband with his new stepmother, or a farmer with his daughter's funky flatmate.
		In a saga straight from one of her novels, Trollope married Curteis in 1985 and they lived with her two daughters and his two sons in a glorious old stone millhouse complete with Aga.
		As in her novels, there is no truly happy ending to this saga, but Trollope has at least two books gestating and she enjoys a heady new sense of freedom.

		Not really what you would expect of me," Weldon later confides, when 3pm comes round and there is still no sign of the lunch her husband is cooking.
		You certainly don't expect Aga sagas from Fay Weldon, the woman who has written 26 novels - clever, funny, political and feminist works.

		Bantering with John Humphrys, James Naughtie (clearly a closet aga devotee) and Amy Willcock, apparently called the Queen of the aga (listen to it here - 8.50am slot) he obviously thought it useless at cooking without really having any experience of it.
		Amy did a fairly pathetic job of standing up for the great beast in the kitchen - her crown needs handing over to someone who is a far better exponent and I'd like to make a nomination.
		And most of the cooking should be done in the oven and not on the plates - this really takes adjusting to if you have always used a conventional electric or gas cooker where the hob seems to rule.
