Obstacles to young love

from one of the greatest comedic writers of a generation comes a story of love, faith and taxidermy. 'three mighty obstacles threaten the burgeoning love of childhood sweethearts timothy pickering and naomi walls. they are steven venables, a dead curlew and god.' 1978: two lovers perch precariously on the cusp of adulthood. timothy's father decides it's time for him to take on the family taxidermy business; while naomi dreams of a career on the stage. across the decades their lives continue to interweave, and occasionally cross - bound by the pull of intoxicating first love. but will their destinies ultimately unite them? nobbs moves his exceptional comic talent to a new-found depth. memorable and moving, a tale of love won and love lost. you will never look at the art of taxidermy in the same way again.
