MAMMALS

MAMMALS

'I've had it with telling. I never want to be told anything either. Not even the time?'

Jane and Kev don't have secrets, there's no room for them. Their children take up all the space. Dirty laundry and weekend guests just have to be squeezed in. But when Kev comes home from a business trip with something on his mind he starts a confessional chain reaction, which has shattering consequences.

MAMMALS is a bitterly comic glimpse of the breeding generation. For anyone who's in, has ever been in, or will ever be in a family.
