Více o knize
Helen Bradshaw, 26, grapples with various challenges: a tedious job at a women's magazine, a penchant for unsuitable men, and her short stature. Just as she plans to break things off with her frustrating boyfriend Jasper, she receives life-altering news—her father has suffered a heart attack. His death triggers a cascade of chaos in her life, affecting her relationships with her mother, her flatmate Luke, and even her cat. With friends like Tina, who is preoccupied with her new romance, and a self-absorbed landlord Marcus, Helen finds herself increasingly isolated. Meanwhile, Tom the vet seems to be out of reach after a tequila mishap. In another narrative, Simon Stockdale informs his son Jack about his grandfather's shocking decision to leave his grandmother after forty years for a woman he has been having an affair with for seven years. This revelation complicates Jack’s first love and weighs heavily on Simon's wife, Carrie. Lastly, the story of Andy unfolds through diary entries as he navigates the challenges of becoming a house husband in Cork. His reflections touch on the essential aspects of life: love, sex, children, music, and even the Eurovision Song Contest, revealing the humorous yet profound realities of his new role.
