Description
'Her stories are - for those who like me recognise the truth in every word - like a reprieve... Sharp poetic and marvellously witty' Kate Kellaway Observer
Here are tales of a highflyer stuck at an interminable Burns Night celebration increasingly aware of the babysitter waiting for her at home; an exhausted mother longing for adult conversation but whose son unwittingly precludes it; and a teenage girl whose fraught encounter with a harried mum of one brings newfound appreciation for her own capable mother of four. Most strikingly of all we meet Dorrie whose efforts to calm her tinderbox of a family leave her struggling to contain her own emotions.
Hey Yeah Right Get a Life is a singular achievement: relatable perceptive and utterly poignant.
'It's a brilliant painful funny and courageous book' Esther Freud Guardian
