Review
"'Swooping gracefully from seriousness to farce and back again, Anne Fine succeeds in exposing a whole gamut of hidden emotions in an admirably perceptive novel'" (Good Housekeeping)
"'A streamlined, ruthlessly stripped-down psychological family romance with enough plot twists and character revelations to fuel a book three times as long. Wicked and funny. Anne Fine is brilliant'" (Time Out)
"'A glorious tirade against the grind of motherhood'" (Observer)
"'A fairytale for grown-ups...wittily observed'" (Sunday Express)
Book Description
