Description

A FIZZINGLY ORIGINAL COMING-OF-AGE STORY FOR FANS OF HOW TO KILL YOUR FAMILY'Riotously funny, nostalgic and immensely touching.' PANDORA SYKES'Broke my heart one minute and had me really laughing the next.' XOCHITL GONZALEZ, author of OLGA DIES DREAMING 'Hands down the funniest, most original novel I've read in ages.' GRANT GINDER, author of THE PEOPLE WE HATE AT THE WEDDING'Audacious and hilarious.' RUMAAN ALAM, author of LEAVE THE WORLD BEHINDFor Constance 'Connie' Costa, life is just beginning. She dreams of leaving behind her dull, dreary life in '70s East London, shaking off her deeply embarrassing Greek-Cypriot community of interfering Aunties and pretend 'cousins', and running away with her best mate Vas (fellow misfit; NHS specs; soul of a poet). She is determined to take her rightful place alongside her hero, David Bowie, onstage at Wembley Stadium.Only one thing stands in her way: her father, The Fat Murderer. No longer content with being an absolute imbecile and general abomination of nature, he has dialled up his campaign to ruin Connie's life ever since the untimely death of her mother.If she ever wants to claim the destiny that is rightfully hers, Connie has only one option left: to kill him.Fizzingly original, disarmingly tender and laugh-out-loud funny, BIG NOBODY is a coming-of-age story about first love, first grief, and the long, painful journey to feeling like a somebody.READERS LOVE CONNIE COSTA . . .'Poignant, authentic and darkly funny' *****'Fabulous - I was rooting for Connie the whole way' *****'Smart, funny, quirky' *****
