Are We Having Fun Yet? (inbunden, eng)

Shortlisted for the 2022 Bollinger Everyman Wodehouse Prize for Comic Fiction''Utterly, utterly perfect and brilliant - I think it is, simply, a new classic, and the book every woman will be able to trust to make her happy when she picks it up'' - Caitlin Moran''Utterly wonderful ...

full of love. Enormously uplifting, funny and witty and wry'' - Marian Keyes''Such a perfectly precise rendering of life with small children, I felt like I was reading my own diary ... had I been cleverer, wittier and more intent on finding the joy and hope and humour amid all the mess of life'' - Meg Mason''A glorious, outrageously funny retelling of E.M.

Delafield''s Diary of a Provincial Lady. At once, a celebration of the joy of family life and a cry of anguish at the utter hell of it. Laugh out loud, compulsive reading'' - Nina StibbeMeet Liz: all she wants is some peace and quiet so she can read a book with her cat Henry, love of her life, by her side.

But trampling all over this dream is a group of wild things also known as Liz''s family. Namely: Richard - a man, a husband, no serious rival to Henry.Thomas - their sensitive seven year old son, for whom life is a bed of pain already.Evie - five year old acrobat, gangster, anarchist, daughter.

And as if her family''s demands (Where are the door keys? Are we made of plastic? Do ''ghost poos'' really count?) weren''t enough, Liz must also contend with the madness of parents, friends, bosses, and at least one hovering nemesis. Are We Having Fun Yet? is a year with one woman as she faces all the storms of modern life (babysitters, death, threadworms) on her epic quest for that holy grail: a moment to herself.
