Here's 2 Absent Fathers

Here's 2 Absent Fathers 
This first novel, by exciting new comic talent Ian Wood, is about a man, John Wakefield, fighting to remain father to his little girl.

Here's 2 Absent Fathers leads the readers through the wreckage of a messy divorce and the inhospitable jungle created by the family courts system and the Child Support Agency, as John fights tooth and nail to secure proper long-term access to his young daughter. The struggle is brought hysterically to life as the absurd manoeuvres that otherwise rational, law-abiding people often resort to in the midst of a divorce are vividly narrated in colourful language.

Alternating chapters charting the harrowing progress of the divorce from shopaholic ex-wife Alice with entertaining episodes from John's childhood, youth and courtship, this darkly comic novel is loosely based on Ian Wood's own experiences, including some infamous Fathers 4 Justice stunts. Here's 2 Absent Fathers is for any parent who's been touched by divorce.
