A moving, blackly comic novel about generations, insanity and finding love in unlikely places.
Agnes is senile; her granddaughter Jodie is an oddball. But how did each of them get that way? In a hurtling plot that moves between Jodie s life going forwards and Agnes s life going backwards, we enter the dark, hilarious world of the mad. Funny, grim yet ultimately uplifting, this is a dark story of family secrets and history, and a seaside love story of two outsiders who find love in a hostile world.
