內容簡介
內容簡介 One perfect day. A million catastrophes. Unfolding across 24 hours, this is a propulsive, funny and sharply observed novel about the absurd, frustrating, hilarious, precarious, bittersweet, sometimes astonishing challenge--literal, existential--of being a woman, a mother, a wife, a person for one single, entire day. For weeks she has been saying it will be their special day. One last, perfect day with her children before she returns to work after maternity leave. What's the worst that can happen? A high-octane Mrs. Dalloway for our hectic times, Natural Disaster is "a thunderously good novel--the kind that makes you rock with laughter, shed a genuine tear, and immediately think of which friends you're going to lend it to first." (Nathan Filer, author of The Shock of the Fall)
