'Hilarious, brilliant, utterly exhilarating' MONICA ALI
'Sharply observed and deeply relatable comedy' GUARDIAN, 70 brilliant books for the summer
'Funny, sad, tender and perfectly observed' IRISH TIMES
For weeks, she has been saying it will be their special day. One last, perfect day with her children before she returns to work after maternity leave. What's the worst that can happen?
Unfolding across 24 hours, Natural Disaster is a novel about the absurd, frustrating, hilarious, precarious, bittersweet, sometimes astonishing challenge - literal, existential - of being a woman, a mother, a wife, a person for one single, entire day.

批評家のレビュー
Sharply observed and deeply relatable comedy
Like Mrs Dalloway with Calpol . . . very, very funny . . . Like all good comedy writers, she nails the details
Hilarious
Funny, sad, tender and perfectly observed ... I suspect a lot of readers will come away from this novel feeling understood in a way that's genuinely rare (Thomas Morris)
Funny, moving ... Both sobering and celebratory, this novel is a powerful addition to the literature of surviving procreation (Diana Evans)
Told with comic precision ... razor sharp ... Owens captures the shifting sands that women are required to navigate ... It's a relief and a joy to see the contradictions of modern life so fully articulated
Hilarious, but also a brilliantly sharp commentary on the many demands of modern life
Beautifully observed, deliciously funny
Funny and relatable, it captures the overwhelming, absurd and quietly extraordinary reality of motherhood
Plenty of female novelists have written about the nightmarish disorientations of early parenthood. Few have done so with the comic finesse Owens applies here ... Owens ploughs well-trodden territory with spiky wit and unsentimental pathos .... I laughed out loud
Fabulously told
Owens captures the absurdity, tenderness and frazzle of modern motherhood with acute, painfully recognisable humour
Very funny
Owens perfectly captures the banalities of solo parenting and the internalised sense of judgement that mums often feel
I absolutely loved it . . . A forensic, agonisingly relatable account of the highs and lows and in-betweens of one whole ordinary day in a life with two small children. Funny, dark, absurd, pin-sharp, insightful, propulsive, unputdownable (Nina Stibbe)
Lisa Owens lays bare the pains, perils and joys of motherhood, all captured over the course of a single day. Hilarious, brilliant, utterly exhilarating (Monica Ali)
An extremely funny book that's both perceptive and propulsive. Triggering, in all the best ways, for anyone who's ever had small children in their lives (Adam Kay)
I absolutely loved it. The joy, the madness, the pettiness, love and ingenuity of a day with two small children is brilliantly observed. Lisa Owens asks what it is to be a mother - and this is the answer. Perceptively, tenderly told, every page provokes humour, recognition, great empathy and often all three at once. The ordinary becomes the extraordinary in Lisa Owens' writing (Lucy Diamond)
Eminently readable, recognisable and reassuring. I read this in a day. One Dalloway-esque day, a million catastrophes, the intense highs and lows of being a mother, a partner, a woman in this world. It's fantastic (Jessie Burton)
