Sample Book Insights:
#1 When I wake in the night, I call Vanessa because she isn’t armed. Van! Van, hey! I hiss across the room until she wakes up. Then Vanessa hands me the candle, and we pee sleepily into the flickering yellow light.
#2 The loo can be unpredictable. It can either refuse to flush at all or just gurgle and splutter water. It can be scary, but you have to get used to it.
#3 I can hear July setting tea on the veranda, and I can smell the first fresh singe of Dad’s morning cigarette. I balance Fred on my shoulder and come out for tea: strong with no sugar, a splash of milk, the way Mum likes it.
