ABOUT THE BOOK
A mother contemplates trading in her teenage son, romance blossoms at The Big Banana, a man gives us a lesson on speed dating, and a woman meticulously plans her own funeral.
This sparkling collection of seventy short stories provides a glimpse into the challenges and pleasures of parenting, confronting the reality of ageing, the euphoria of love and agony of loss. The stories range from moving to acerbic to darkly humorous. They remind us how the ordinary can be made to seem extraordinary, even miraculous.
"Dazzling. These stories are fearless, defiant and brimming with wit."
Gillian O’Shaughnessy
