About this audiobook
A suburban couple's quiet life is upended when they take in a lodger to make ends meet, leading to a comedy of manners and class friction. The "paying guest" brings unexpected chaos, challenging the household's pretenses of respectability. It is a lighter, humorous look at the social awkwardness inherent in the lower-middle-class aspiration.
