When John moves into the house shared by Tasha, Siobhan, Quentin and Claire things start happening. Something about John, his in-your-face cheerfulness, his choice of career.something gets the others going. Suddenly they seem to be arguing about things that matter. No-one quite knows who suggested it, but soon they have embarked on a Friday evening ritual of dinner party and discussion. On the menu are money, sex, God, marriage, drugs, politics, parents, goals. And as the weeks turn into months each of them finds they are beginning to change. Masterful characterisation and quick-fire dialogue dramatize the debates about some of the key issues in our personal lives today in this absorbing story with a twist in the tail. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

When John takes the fifth room in a shared house, people start to talk about the things that matter. Every Friday evening over dinner they thrash out a chosen topic—sex, marriage, drugs, God, and money. Their debates are lively, passionate, and always personal. And as the weeks go by, their crises, conflicts, and beliefs begin to unfold. This bittersweet narrative deftly articulates, without moralizing, a quest for meaning amongst a frantic generation. With laugh-out-loud quotes and delicious recipes in the page margin, this will entertain those who enjoy good food, good conversation, and a look at the "deep stuff" in life.
