The aerodynamics of pork : an alternative romance / Patrick Gale

P. Gale

Two interrelated stories run in parallel, one set in London and quickly moving to Cornwall, the other remaining in London. The Cornwall part concerns the Peake family as they prepare for an annual music festival. The Peake Family includes talented violinist, 15 coming on 16 year old Seth Peake, his older sister Venitia with an ever expanding waist, and their liberal minded mother Evelyn. In London the story follows police inspector Mo Faithe, who in addition to chasing criminals pursues her own lesbian interests.
