The Full Ridiculous

I very much enjoyed The Full Ridiculous by Mark Lamprell, which is set in Australia.  The story is written in the second person - an interesting effect.  Michael O'Dell is hit by a car when crossing the road and his life seems to unravel after this traumatic event.  Then at school, his daughter Rosie is involved in an incident which will have wider ramifications for her and her family.  Michael's son, Declan, is discovered to have almost done something unlawful.  Wife, Wendy, is stressed about how the family will survive financially.  There seems to be one crisis after another, some almost comical involving a maniacal police constable.  Michael despairs that his life will ever be "normal" again.  The reader will be asking what next can go wrong with this family.  Very clever writing. 4/5
