The Condition is the first book I have read by Jennifer Haigh but I feel sure that it will not be the last. From the very first page I found myself drawn into this magnificently compelling story and I was soon caught up in all of the characters' lives.
This is a story about an ordinary family. At least they are ordinary until the day they discover that Gwen, the middle child, suffers from Turner's syndrome which means that her body will never grow up. Her parents, Frank and Paulette, and her two brothers react in different ways but life will never be the same for any of them again. Adversity pulls some families together but it tears others apart. This is the way it is for the McKotch family.
The story starts in 1976 when gradually it becomes obvious that there is something wrong with thirteen year old Gwen's development. The story ...
Advantages: Almost Excellent airline to fly with. Disadvantages: £4 booking fee if not using a Visa Electron card.
Introduction
I have used this air plane a number of times in booking flights and travelling to Prague from London Luton airport and have been generally pleased with the service throughout the buying process.
