​THE VERY LAST LIST OF VIVIAN WALKER
DUE FOR RELEASE EARLY 2022

“Now that I’ve got cancer, I know I should be letting go and just being in the moment with my child, but seriously, what mother has got time to spend with their kids?” (Viv, The Very Last List of Vivian Walker)

Vivian is dying, but still has a huge number of things left to finish on her to-do list. Not her bucket list, her everyday list of chores that, despite her diagnosis, still need attending to.

Her unfinished business includes jobs such as cleaning the fridge and uncluttering the toy room, while her husband’s list is skewed more towards having sex and going for long walks in the countryside. Their eight-year-old son Ethan also has a list including playing handball, building a robot and un-tidying his room.

​The Very Last List of Vivian Walker is now available below and in your favourite book stores.

WHAT READERS ARE SAYING

‘Brilliant, engaging writing.’
 
‘I feel like I made a new bestie and lost her all at once.’
 
‘Wow. What a beautiful and honest story about facing mortality in such a young person. This one hit home a little having lost my dad to cancer but boy, I went from laughing to crying from start to finish.’
 
 ‘I didn’t want this book to end in more ways than I can say, it has taught me to stop and just be more often. A book for all women.’

The Very Last List of Vivian Walker is a darkly funny and moving look at how one family cope with saying goodbye to an ordinary marriage and an un-extraordinary life.

The Very Last List of Vivian Walker will make you snort tea out your nose with laughter, make you ugly cry, make you cringe and make you want to embrace humanity in all its clumsiness, selfishness, meanness, beauty and awkwardness.

“In the end, I will probably not be enlightened, famous, ground-breaking, saintly or even just nice.” (Viv, The The Very Last List of Vivian Walker)
