| book description |
HOW FAR WOULD YOU GO FOR A YEAR OFF WORK? 'The comedy gold standard' Stylist 'This book will make you guffaw out loud' Prima 'It’s one that’s sure to have you laughing and crying in equal measures' - Express Meet Barri Brown. Respected teacher. Upstanding citizen of Guernsey. Down for a bit of law-breaking . . . Barri has spent years slaving away as a teacher and covering for colleagues with kids. When her husband vanishes – along with her savings – it’s the final straw. And so, she hatches a wild plan: fake a pregnancy and use the paid maternity leave to start over somewhere new. With seven foam bumps, a wardrobe full of smock dresses and a great pregnancy heist underway, all Barri has to do is blag it until she can disappear for good – without getting caught and being sent to prison for fraud. How hard could it be? On a small island like Guernsey, it’s a motherfaking nightmare. And to make matters worse, when Barri’s fake pregnancy forces her to make genuine connections with people for the first time in years, she begins to understand the true cost of her deception . . . Will she really get away with telling the mother of all lies? Praise for Motherfaker 'Brilliantly original and hilariously executed, Motherfaker is a tour de force' – ROSIE WALSH, international bestselling author of The Man Who Didn't Call 'An unforgettable story with an unforgettable main character . . . Funny, moving, relatable and keeps you on the edge of your seat waiting to see what happens next' – LIBBY PAGE, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Lido 'I couldn’t put this down! Hilarious, surprising, and sneakily tender' – NATALIE SUE, international bestselling author of I Hope This Finds You Well 'Motherfaker is a crazy, screwball comedy with real heart and soul . . . A joyful novel of family (in all its forms), friendship and staying true to oneself' – SARAH HAYWOOD, New York Times bestselling author of The Cactus 'Anna Brook-Mitchell has given birth to a genius of an idea. A bold, brilliant and bonkers caper about how sometimes you have to fake it, to discover who you really are’ – ALEXANDRA POTTER, bestselling author of Confessions of a Forty-Something F##k-Up
