Irresistibly funny, wise and thought-provoking - a tragicomic tour
de force about family, fortune, and the struggle to be a good
person when the world is falling apart... 'It's a thing of beauty,
a novel that will fill your heart' Observer 'I experienced every
possible human emotion while reading The Bee Sting... Its ambition
and scale are astonishing. A remarkable feat of storytelling' Mark
O'Connell The Barnes family is in trouble. Dickie's once-lucrative
car business is going under - but rather than face the music, he's
spending his days in the woods, building an apocalypse-proof bunker
with a renegade handyman. His wife Imelda is selling off her
jewellery on eBay while their teenage daughter Cass, formerly top
of her class, seems determined to binge-drink her way to her final
exams. And twelve-year-old PJ is putting the final touches to his
grand plan to run away from home. Where did it all go wrong? A
patch of ice on the tarmac, a casual favour to a charming stranger,
a bee caught beneath a bridal veil - can a single moment of bad
luck change the direction of a life? And if the story has already
been written - is there still time to find a happy ending?
