Description

If you’re going to end it, you better make it big. No slipping off bridges, it’s undignified for men of our vintage. Go big or don’t bother. Joel lives in a nursing home and he’s not one bit happy about it. He doesn’t like being told when to eat, when to sleep, when to take his pills. In fact, he doesn’t like living at all, and he’s decided he’s going to end his life on his terms. When he tells retired soap-actor Frank about his dark plan, Frank urges him to go out with a bang. Together, they embark on a mission to find the perfect suicide, and along the way, discover the strength of friendship when you really feel alone.

Professional reviews

"A story of ageing, family and the enduring power of friendship, following two fantastic characters full of moments of brilliant dark humour and unforgettably touching moments. Praise for Dan Mooney: “Dan […] introduces us to a shocking post-trauma world where everything and nothing makes perfect sense” ANNIE WEST. “I’ve never quite read anything like it…funny. Moving and terrifying all at once.” RICK O’SHEA."
