About the book

Nothing ever happened to her.
And then everything did.

Esme Good is an unremarkable young woman working a dull job in a city much like the one you're picturing now.

Her only escape is The Elsewheres: tiny potions which allow her to visit alternate versions of herself. Sadly, these only confirm her suspicion that she is, in a cosmic sense, living her worst life.

But, after an incident we simply don't have time to get into right now, she will become the most important person in this - or perhaps any - universe.

As you can imagine, this is a lot of pressure. And she's not going to handle it well.

Esme has never been a main character. Now, a lot of things are about to happen to her: in fact, everything, and so much.

****

'Wonderfully whimsical, wacky and wise - who knew that Terry Pratchett and Douglas Adams' lovechild would look like Andrew Hunter Murray?'
TIM MINCHIN

'Hilarious, gripping, truly original... Utterly enjoyable'
CARIAD LLOYD

'Page-turning and brilliantly silly ... This book exemplifies all that is good about British humour. Thrilling and anarchic and entirely unique'
RACHEL PARRIS

'So fun! A reality-shifting, epic adventure that is very very VERY funny'
ELLIE TAYLOR

'Wry, giddy, explosive, and deeply humane: Catch 22 for the Instagram generation'
IAN DUNT

'Delightfully madcap, sharply well-written, consistently hilarious, and really very wise about life'
NAOMI ISHIGURO

'An utter joy - witty, warm and clever, this book is an absolute riot. I loved it!'
ELIZABETH MACNEAL, AUTHOR OF THE DOLL FACTORY
