Opis

Josie's life is falling apart -her business down the drain and a feckless husband long gone - so she gathers up her kids and lights out for the Alaskan wilderness. The trip of a lifetime. It involves one battered old RV, a highly sensitive eight year old boy, a fearless and hyperactive five year old girl, several forest fires, a large supply of pinot noir, and a deeply misguided sense of optimism.

Recenzje

Publisher's description. A brilliant new black comedy about modern America. A surreal family road trip through the Alaskan wilderness veers wildly off-course, as one mother and her two young children try to make their way back to the 'right' path - and find a new one along the way. Penguin
