A Little Bit Bad: For fans of All Fours and Sharon Horgan - a darkly funny and intoxicating novel about a woman blowing up her life - Softcover
Synopsis
'This darkly funny, slippery novel is a hoot to read and will please fans of Miranda July’s All Fours' The i Paper
'A sparkling and subversive debut ... this tragicomic tale of an American woman’s illicit romance is also a gripping murder mystery' Guardian
'Compelling ... full of wisdom on addiction, obsession, motherhood and marriage' Daily Mail
Perdita Jungfrau thought she was going to be married to her husband forever, so falling in love with Nando, her ‘anarcho-Marxist’ handyman, is a crisis.
Life seems to put every possible obstacle in their way: she’s pregnant, he has a girlfriend, he’s fifteen years younger, she’s terrified of messing up her children and equally drawn towards this magnetic man who entrusts her with his deepest secret.
Now it's three years later and Nando has been murdered.
As her bewildered husband tries to make sense of the wildly unpredictable person his wife has become, Perdita has other things on her mind. For starters, who is the mysterious woman sitting outside her house in a parked car all day? How can she stop her adored baby brother from being pulled under by his opioid addiction? Can someone with a childhood like hers ever be the mother her children deserve?
And most of all, what should she do with the searing memories of the affair that turned her life upside down?

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Big Swiss meets All Fours in this dazzlingly wild, darkly funny debut about desire and obsession, motherhood and marriage and the irresistible intoxication of blowing up your lifePerdita Jungfrau thought she knew what she wanted her life to be: marriage, children, stability, the hard-won (if slightly stultifying) shape of adulthood. Then she meets Nando, her much younger handyman - charismatic, complicated, and entirely wrong for her - and everything she thought was settled begins to shift.Three years later, Nando is dead. As searing memories of their relationship resurface, the fever of obsession and the ache of its aftermath, Perdita finds her life turned upside-down once more. Then there's the appearance of a mysterious woman parked outside her house, her younger brother's increasingly erratic behaviour, and the knowledge that Nando's killer is still at large. Not that she can tell her husband any of this, of course.Dazzlingly wild and darkly funny, this is a story about the impossible mess of being alive and the irresistible intoxication of being just a little bit bad.
