Man at the Helm: The hilarious debut novel from one of Britain’s wittiest writers

Nina Stibbe

The funniest paperback of the year from Britain’s best new comic novelist

Meet Lizzie Vogel, 9.

Lizzie is concerned about her newly divorcee mother - thirty-one years old, with three young children and a Labrador in a hostile village in the English countryside.

It isn’t that having a husband is good, but in 1970s rural Leicestershire, not having one is bad. The women in the village think Lizzie’s mother is after their husbands and no one will let the children into the Brownies. And so Lizzie and her sister embark on a misguided campaign to find a new Man at the Helm.
