What I Did - A Novel - E-book - ePub

"This is family life today at its most believable: warm and messy, bored and raging.. I LOVED IT."-Emma Donoghue, author of the New York Times bestseller Room What I Did by Christopher Wakling is a truly astonishing novel-the chronicle of a family crisis that is equal parts hilarity, poignancy, and horror, told in the singular voice of a most precocious youngster.  Room meets The Slap meets The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, Wakling's tour de force concerns one rash act that pitches a six-year-old boy and his hapless parents into the center of a social services maelstrom.
What I Did is contemporary fiction at its most enthrallingly original-poignant, powerful, and extremely funny-a miraculous work that prompted London's Daily Mail to declare it "the novel that should have won the Booker prize."
