Natural Disaster

One perfect day. A million catastrophes.

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?

Unfolding across 24 hours, Natural Disaster is a propulsive, darkly 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.
