À propos de la quatrième de couverture

Severinus Lloyd Norris longs for a life of peace, harmony and normality, but sometimes it seems as if his dream will never come true. Maybe it's because he's gay – although, as far as Pearl Fay, his synchronised swimming, fanatically tidy and libidinous ex-wife is concerned, all he needs to do is find the right man. Or maybe he simply needs to escape the attentions of his machiavellian secretary, Mrs Kunda, who is determined that he rise to the top of the byzantine label design company where he works. Whichever way, whenever Mr Norris tries to do some good in a crazy world – whether it's volunteering to become a home help for two cranky old men, opening his doors to the needy and desperate, or confessing his intimate thoughts and desires to his priest – he finds himself curiously on the defensive.
