Description
The Fowler Family Business by Jonathan Meades is a darkly comedic exploration of family life and identity. In this warped and humorous tale, Henry Fowler's world begins to unravel when his wife's tennis partner is accidentally beheaded by his electric hedgecutter, while his daughter suffers from mysterious waterworks problems. As the foundations of his family and identity begin to rock, Henry must confront his own doubts about his wife's fidelity. With a cast of eccentric characters and a narrative that veers between the mundane and the bizarre, this novel is a searing portrayal of middle-aged life in south-east London. With its unique blend of black humour and literary insight, The Fowler Family Business is a gripping and unsettling read that will leave you questioning the complexities of family relationships.
