Real Life, Paperback / softback Book

Real Life Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

At home there are four bedrooms: one for her, one for her little brother Sam, one for her parents, and one for the carcasses.

Her father is a big-game hunter, a powerful predator, and her mother is submissive to her violent husband's demands.

The young narrator spends the days with Sam, playing in the shells of cars dumped for scrap and listening out for the melody of the ice-cream truck, until a brutal accident shatters their world.

This breathtaking debut is a sharp and funny coming-of-age tale in which reality and fantasy collide.
