About this listen
Paul and Elaine have two boys and a beautiful home, yet they find themselves thoroughly, inexplicably stuck. Obsessed with 'making things good again', they spin the quiet terrors of family life into a fantastical frenzy that careens well and truly out of control.
From a hilarious encounter in the pantry with a Stepford Wife neighbour, to a hostage situation at the school, Homes lays bare the foundations of marriage and family life.

"Brilliant… I found myself rapt from beginning to end" ( New York Times)
"Homes describes nice people doing not-so-nice deeds in luminous, precise prose" (Tim Appelo)
