Description
Mr Norris wants everyone to know that he is gay. The problem is, no one will believe him. His position isn't helped by the fact that he is living with his ex-wife and that he has never had sex with a man. Plain and Normal is James Wilcox's long awaited new novel.
In his funniest novel yet, James Wilcox introduces us to a Mr Norris, a man who just wants his life to be plain and normal. Everything will be much easier if everyone is clear about who he is. That he is gay, for example. But unfortuantely life isn't that easy and people will keep on drawing the wrong conclusions. In this hilarious new novel Mr Norris gets in deeper and deeper. Only Mr Norris could go to a gay club on the wrong night, and, being too polite to leave, get into conversation with a homophobic lorry driver called Rocco. But then no one in this novel is as plain or as normal as they seem.
