Synopsis

Andy is a musician and songwriter. At least, that’s what he was until he was persuaded by his wife to become a House Husband when she goes back to work. And so begins a life of school runs, changing nappies and watching Sesame Street. But things turn out to be far more complicated than Andy ever expected … The trials and tribulations of Andy’s role reversal are relayed in minute by minute diary form in this wonderful debut novel which is sad, funny and, at times, seriously profound about the things in life which really matter – love, sex, children, music and (yes!) the Eurovision Song Contest!
