Opis

'Startlingly original...an utter delight' -"Tamsin Greig
'"Prepare to be charmed by Sue Bowl' -"Mail on Sunday
"A hilariously quirky coming-of-age novel, for readers who loved Sarah Winman's "When God Was a Rabbit, "Maria Semple's "Where'd You Go Bernadette"and Nina Stibbe's "Love, Nina.
" In 1987, Sue Bowl's world changes for ever. Her mother dies, leaving her feeling like she's lost a vital part of herself. And then her father shacks up with an awful man-eater called Ivana.
But Sue's mother always told her to make the most of what she's got -- and what she's got is a love of writing and some eccentric relatives. So Sue moves to her Aunt Coral's crumbling ancestral home, where she fully intends to write a book and fall in love...and perhaps drink Campari for breakfast."
Campari For Breakfast"is a heart-warming, eccentric novel that joins the ranks of great British coming-of-age novels such as Dodie Smith's "I Capture the Castle "and Nancy Mitford's "The Pursuit of Love.""
