Born Free is Laura Hird's first novel.
Punchy, acerbic, sharp-witted and above all acutely observed, Born Free tells the story of an ordinary family who are all trying to escape from something...and each other.
The interactions between Jake, Joni, Angie and Vic reveal a hellish cocktail of adolescent and mid-life crises; the savagery of sibling rivalry; the waking nightmare of a marriage gone cold and, naturally, the unbridgeable, infernal chasm between the generations.
It's a story of everyday life.
