Description
'It's sweet-sad and hilarious, it will be loved. Plimmer should be applauded.' - Daily Express . 'a touching and witty snapshot of family life seen through the eyes of an average man. Plimmer's a major new talent in dad lit.' - Woman magazine . You would think that as an acclaimed writer and comedian, Martin Plimmer would be well able to run a happy household. But with his French au pair cosily tucked away in his son's bedroom and his 12 year-old daughter believing that 'life's a bitch' this is far from the truth. King of the Castle is an honest tale of the domestic chaos that filled a year of Martin's life. With his marriage, hair and career slowly disintegrating, you can't help but feel his pain. The art of juggling a house full of cats, nannies, stray children along with a collapsing freelance career is hilariously brought to life. This is one domestic disaster you are guaranteed to enjoy.
