A laugh-out-loud love story with big ideas - and squirrels
SHORTLISTED FOR THE BAILEYS WOMEN'S PRIZE FOR FICTION 2016 Can
squirrels speak? Do snails scream? Will a young couple, newly
engaged, make it to their wedding day? Will their dysfunctional
families ruin everything? Will they be undone by the advances of a
very sexy, very unscrupulous heiress to a pharmaceuticals
corporation? Is getting married even a remotely reasonable idea in
the twenty-first century? And what in the world is a ‘Veblen’
anyway? ‘Raw and weird and hilarious’ Guardian ‘A touching,
wildly funny and peculiarly elegant look at the travails of love of
all kinds’ Sunday Express ‘Elizabeth McKenzie is clearly some
sort of genius’ Paul Murray ‘I can’t remember a book I
enjoyed more’ Nina Stibbe ‘Seriously funny and extraordinarily
well written’ Jonathan Franzen, Guardian books of the year
