Kate Atkinson''s brilliant and unforgettable first novel, which won the Whitbread (now Costa) Book of the Year Prize.

''Delivers its jokes and its tragedies as efficiently as Dickens...outrageously funny...will dazzle readers for years to come'' - HILARY MANTEL, author of The Mirror and the Light

Ruby Lennox was conceived grudgingly by Bunty and born while her father, George, was in the Dog and Hare in Doncaster telling a woman in an emerald dress and a D-cup that he wasn''t married. Bunty had never wanted to marry George, but here she was, stuck in a flat above the pet shop in an ancient street beneath York Minster, with sensible and sardonic Patricia aged five, greedy cross-patch Gillian who refused to be ignored, and Ruby...

Ruby tells the story of The Family, from the day at the end of the nineteenth century when a travelling French photographer catches frail beautiful Alice and her children, like flowers in amber, to the startling, witty, and memorable events of Ruby''s own life.

''Little short of a masterpiece...Fizzing with wit and energy, Kate Atkinson''s hilarious novel made me laugh and cry'' Daily Mail

''An astounding book...without doubt one of the finest novels I have read for years'' THE TIMES
