The idyll of the 'Perfect Family',which everyone else seems to have,is a nightmare for Nancy.Only vodka and brittle desperation have enabled her to orchestrate the Christmas photograph of her hopeful progeny: daughter Gemma with luminous spots,monosyllabic Jake,who looks like a drug addict,and little Flossie,prone to Violet Elizabeth-style tantrums. Then there's her monstrously cross husband,never happy if separated from his mobile,even for purposes of familial celebration. Even the dog is embarrassed.Victoria Mather and Sue Macartney-Snape return with another bitingly funny appraisal of modern Social Stereotypes.Among them are the Armchair Spectators,let down again by the 'plucky little Brit' at Wimbledon; the Disorganised Woman, whose car keys have always escaped to a Safe Place; the elderly Luddites who've just learnt to 'surf the keyboard'; and the Hands-On Father,who sees little Inigo's art appreciation and baby yoga classes as being essential to his well-being as a clean nappy.From the Atkins Dieter and the White Van Man,to the Hair Colourist and the Nosy Neighbour,no contemporary character has escaped the pages of this book.We'll not only recognize those around us,we may even discover ourselves. The combination of Sue Macartney-Snape's frighteningly astute drawings and Victoria Mather's scintillating texts confirm them as the sharpest,funniest and most entertaining social observers of our time.
