About
Meet Ken. He's obsessed with death, planning his own funeral and desperate to die in the bosom of his family. Unfortunately for Ken, that's the last place his family wants him.
An Oprah Book of The Week. In her fourth book award-winning, Booker Prize longlisted British author Louise Dean sings a hymn to England in this dark comedy hailed by reviewers as 'extremely funny' with 'a clever plot and plenty of surprises.'
His oldest son Nick left home over twenty years ago and reinvented himself. At forty, he has returned home to Kent in the South East of England and found happiness with his girlfriend Astrid and her twelve-year-old daughter Laura, and he doesn't want the old man to spoil things. He's come a long way; he's a professional, a country gent, a family man. But the past is coming back for Nick and it won't let him be.
