Synopsis

The hilarious and poignant new novel from one of Britain's most entertaining and provocate writers.Sometimes it's possible to want something too much. That's when you risk losing what you have.Sam and Lucy seem like the perfect couple. Successful, happy and in love. Lucy thinks Sam is a sad, cold sensitivity-exclusion zone who would rather read a newspaper than have a emotion. Sam thinks Lucy is blaming him because she can't walk past Mothercare without getting all teary. The Problem is that they might be infertile. And in more ways than one.Lucy wants a baby. Sam wants to write a hit movie. And given that the averag IVF cycle has about a one in five chance of going into full production, Lucy's chances of getting what she wants are considerably better than Sam's.
