The Normal Man synopsis

Janey March, the heroine of The Normal Man, inhabits a world where food and love are king. Armed only with her self help bible Good Love? Bad Love? and worn down by months of starvation diets and a series of romances that have raised and dashed her hopes in turn, summer finds her still longing for true domestic bliss, for all the bread and jam she can eat, but most of all for the father she loved and lost ten years ago.

The Normal Man spans one eventful weekend in the life of Janey March. A freak accident at a house warming party draws in all her conflicting obsessions, and amongst the sons and the memories, the cakes and the blood, she is forced again to think about the peculiarities of her family and her taste in men.
