Human Croquet - Kate Atkinson

Quite how Kate Atkinson gets inside Isobel's head I've not idea: we follow fantastic flights of fancy, terrible trains of thought. En route Kate Atkinson provides the Fairfax family history, teenage love-from-afar, social and sexual reinvention, ad hoc time-shifts, incest and death. Lots of it.
