A combustibly funny, harrowing and utterly original novel from the internationally acclaimed, Booker Prize-winning author of Oscar and Lucinda. Granny Catchprice runs her family business--and her family--with senility, cunning, and a handbag full of explosives. But a very pregnant agent of the Australian Taxation Office turns the family upside down in this darkly comic masterpiece.
