Lifes hard for a Greek god in the twenty-first century: nobody believes in you any more, even your own family doesnt respect you, and youre stuck in a dilapidated hovel in North London with too many siblings and not enough hot water.
But for Artemis (goddess of hunting, professional dog walker), Aphrodite (goddess of beauty, telephone sex operator) and Apollo (god of the sun, TV psychic) theres no way out until a meek cleaner and her would-be boyfriend come into their lives and turn the world upside down. Gods Behaving Badly is that rare thing, a charming, funny, utterly original novel that satisfies the head and the heart.From the Hardcover edition.
