Nobody Loves a Ginger Baby
Everyone’s on antidepressants, suffering from Post Romantic Stress Disorder – especially Daphne, who’s just been severely chucked by lily-livered Donnie. Being unhappy is embarrassing, and therefore intolerable, so everyone’s secretly on the happy pills. After a lot of soup, a soupcon of unseemly relationships, a few deaths and an abundance of life-affirming triumphs, ‘pro-joy’ is mooted by Pierce as the way to go. But is it really?

She consistently examines their experiences, relationships and foibles with insight, compassion and a rollicking, earthy humour." – Zoe Strachan, author of Negative Space
