About this book
Janey March inhabits a world where food and love are king. Worn down by starvation diets and a series of romances that have raised and dashed her hopes, she longs for domestic bliss, and all the bread and jam she can eat, but most of all for her father, dead now ten years. Spanning one eventful weekend, The Normal Man is a delightful and acute portrait of a singular psychology. Strewn with jokes and eccentricities, and peopled with characters of questionable normality, it marks the debut of a wonderful new talent.
