The Husbands

‘Properly laugh-out-loud funny, this was one of the most original novels I’ve read in years’ RED, *Books of the Year*
‘A witty, ingenious debut novel… An enormously entertaining story that is both silly and sophisticated’ SUNDAY TIMES, *Books of the Year*

What if you could change husbands as easily as a lightbulb?

One night Lauren finds a strange man in her flat who claims to be her husband. All the evidence – from photos to electricity bills – suggests he’s right. And then another one appears. Lauren’s attic, she slowly realises, is creating an endless supply of husbands for her. There’s:

The one who’s too hot (there must be a catch).
The one who pretends to play music on her toes.
The one who can calm her unruly thoughts with a single touch.

But when you can change husbands as easily as changing a lightbulb, how do you know whether the one you have now is the good-enough one, or the wrong one, or the best one? And how long should you keep trying to find out?
