From the Radio Times:
"Kevin is a book that acknowledges what many women worry about but never express - the fear of becoming a mother and the terror of what kind of child one might bring into the world," is how Jenni Murray described this taboo-breaking psychological thriller when it won the Orange Prize for fiction in 2005. Three years later, and it's become the Woman's Hour drama, shot through with dark humour.

Oh wow the birth bit sounds like The Exorcist! Freaky! Mind you, I remember saying exactly what she did....give me a bloody epidural! But they didn't...lol!

I have heard this audiobook by another reader, and this is fantastic so far! Crappy story, but a really good one... if that makes any sense.
