The Wakes - The hilarious and heartbreaking Australian bestseller

FOUR FUNERALS. TWO MARRIAGES. ONE PRECIOUS LIFE.

This is a story about Clare, Chris and Louisa. It is about two failing marriages, two strangers falling in love and two friends embarking on a potentially disastrous funeral catering business. It is most certainly not about frittatas (a terrible concession) and more to do with lemon tart (a perfect contrast of textures).

This is a story about all the things that make life worth living, and how joy breaks in even when you least expect it.
