Produktbeschreibung

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 novelthe 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 originalpoignant, powerful, and extremely funnya miraculous work that prompted London's Daily Mail to declare it the novel that should have won the Booker prize.
