Getting Home is the story of the good people of Westwick - the ultimate suburb, paradise just ten minutes from the airport, the perfect human environment and a model for the world. Nothing ever happens in a suburb, that's why people live there - until the residents of Westwick suddenly go a little haywire. There's only one rule in a suburb - never trust your neighbours, and Westwick is about to prove it's true. It's a jungle out there and, after the adultery, blackmail, slander, sleaze and pollution, Westwick finally scrambles the helicopters and takes to the streets in a hilarious climax to the funniest most provocative novel yet from one of our most gifted storytellers.
