<p>A funny, compelling novel about love, family, and the precarious business of being a man.</p><p>Michael O&#8217;Dell is hit by a car. When he doesn&#8217;t die, he is surprised and pleased. But he can&#8217;t seem to move from the crash position. In fact, the accident is just the first in a series of family crises: His wife Wendy is heroically supportive, but when his daughter Rosie punches out a vindictive schoolmate, all hell breaks loose. His son Declan is found with a stash of illicit drugs. A strange policeman starts harassing the family and ordinary mishaps take on a sinister desperation. To top it all off, Michael&#8217;s professional life starts to crumble.</p><p>Mark Lamprell&#8217;s extraordinary debut examines the terrible truth: sometimes you can&#8217;t pull yourself together until you&#8217;ve completely fallen apart.</p>
