This Crazy Thing I Call My Life

My review -
Coming
out to his parents was only the first hurdle for student David. He and Jamie
decide to get both sets of parents together so they can get to know one
another. It sounds nice. It wasn’t! You know the way you can say what you like
about your own family but woe unto the one who criticises them in your hearing?
That!
Jonathan
Hill picks up on our tendency to fly to the family’s defence, even when we know
the criticism to be true. The boys have their first row while defending the
very attitudes they have complained about in the past. And that’s not even the
worst that can happen. This is another very funny and well-observed slice of
life from an author with a strong sense of the absurd.
