Description
Paul and Elaine have two boys and a beautiful home, yet they find themselves stuck. Obsessed with 'making things good again', they spin the quiet terrors of family life into a fantastical frenzy that careens out of control. A. M. Homes's novel unfolds, revealing the foundations of marriage and family life in all their complexity. As the story unfolds, the American good life becomes a hallucinogenic world of colour and chaos. From a strange encounter with a neighbour, to a house-cleaning team in space suits, to a hostage situation at school, the characters are outrageously flawed, deeply human and entirely believable. A. M. Homes's novel is a searing portrayal of marriage and family life, full of humour and humanity.
