Product Description
All Alice ever wanted was a husband and family, and that is what she got…
As she lies dying, she is able to reflect on the life she spent making jam, looking after her husband and raising her children.
Little disturbed the steady rhythm of family life and domesticity, and Alice was happy.
But one person’s happiness is the next person’s boredom.
Alice’s family, friends and parents all fought their own personal battle to keep the tedium of life at bay – some more successfully than others.
Dick and his gardening, Marjorie and her Latin, Mary and her faith, Nicholas and his painting, Mr Hadley and his whiskey…
People grow old, babies are born, vegetables are planted and harvested, and life goes on.
But as Alice lies on her death bed, an awful thought suddenly grips her.
Is she dying of boredom?
