"A funny, feisty read. I was hooked from the first page." - Mia Freedman Smart, funny and refreshingly honest, The Happiness Show is the first novel from much - loved columnist and comedian Catherine Deveny. At thirty - eight, Lizzie Quealy thinks she has things sorted: happy marriage, a couple of gorgeous kids, a steadfast best friend and a job she loves (most of the time). But when she bumps into Tom, an old flame from her globe - trotting twenties, everything she thought she knew is turned on its head. Tom is her "unfinished business": the man she might have spent her life with, if things had gone a little bit differently. Fifteen years on, the spark is still there - but how far is Lizzie prepared to go to recapture it, and at what cost? Set between Melbourne, London and Bali, The Happiness Show is a hilarious, heartbreaking story about love and marriage, sex and friendship, the passing of time and the messiness of second chances.
