Big Nobody - Alex Kadis

For Constance Connie Costa, life is just beginning. She dreams of leaving behind her dull, dreary life in 70s East London, shaking off her deeply embarrassing Greek-Cypriot community of interfering Aunties and pretend cousins , and running away with her best mate Vas (fellow misfit; NHS specs; soul of a poet). She is determined to take her rightful place alongside her hero, David Bowie, onstage at Wembley Stadium.Only one thing stands in her way: her father, The Fat Murderer. No longer content with being an absolute imbecile and general abomination of nature, he has dialled up his campaign to ruin Connie s life ever since the untimely death of her mother.If she ever wants to claim the destiny that is rightfully hers, Connie has only one option left: to kill him.Fizzingly original, disarmingly tender and laugh-out-loud funny, BIG NOBODY is a coming-of-age story about first love, first grief, and the long, painful journey to feeling like a somebody.
