An enjoyably warm and irreverent narrative describing a middle-class single mum's gentle desperation, attempted suicide and road to recovery which all rings true, but never becomes depressing as it is peppered with episodes of real comic timing, love, passion, temper and redecorating.. a bit like real life, really.
