Publishers Description: Vivian Walker is dying. This is not on her list of things to do. A darkly funny debut that proves even the most imperfect of lives is worth celebrating.Now that Ive 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 kidsVivian Walkers life is exceptionally ordinary. Average husband, check. Darling son, check. Refrigerator in a state of permanent disarray, check. Everything is thoroughly and frustratingly routine, even being terminally ill.After receiving her diagnosis, Vivs family wont let her lift a finger . . . for at least a week. But once the novelty wears off, shes lucky to get a cup of tea for her trouble. In preparation for D-day, self-professed control freak Viv has made a list of essential things to do, such as decluttering the playroom and preparing her taxes. She doesnt expect to become spiritually enlightened or have any outlandish last-minute successes. All she wants is to finish her unfinished business.As her final days unfold, Viv realises her life has become a love letter to the mundane but she still manages to keep her wicked sense of humour and cynical take on life unapologetically intact. The Very Last List of Vivian Walker will make you ugly cry, snort tea out your nose with laughter and want to embrace humanity in all its selfishness, beauty and awkwardness.
