Notes on my Family

Family isn't a word, it's game with too many players. Lou's world is changing, breaking down, chaos is seeping in. Dad is having an affair, Mum has 'an episode', nan's communicating with angels, brother Mikey, struggling with his sexuality, covers every kitchen surface with cakes, her friend Faith discovers the importance of Nietzsche and Fleetwood Mac, then Mikey disappears...

Emily Critchley's touching, unsettling and darkly hilarious novel is a hymn to the absurdity and surreal undercurrents that lie beneath ordinary suburban lives.
