'In this funny, razor’s edge memoir, Nowra looks back at a fractured family: a beautiful and demanding mother, whose standards could and would never be met; a father in love with long-distance; a mad grandmother; a hideous head accident; and a childhood filled with strangeness and obsessions. A moving and wonderfully original evocation of an unconventional boyhood, of growing up believing that aliens might just walk among us, and of the realisation that to be normal is harder than you think.'
