Living with Jo

We all dream of finding the love of our life and quirky, lonely, mild-mannered Oliver Birch is no exception. In fact, he already knows who she is as he’s been adoring her from a distance for the past thirty years. Unfortunately, Joanna is happily married to someone else! However, things take an unexpected turn when she turns up at his apartment…not just to visit but to stay! For Oliver, it’s as if Christmas has come early…but only if he can keep a handle on where two dimensional fantasy ends and reality begins. Is Joanna Oliver’s saviour, or will she gradually drive him towards the psychiatrist’s couch? Living with Jo is an intriguing love story that explores a world familiar to those who find themselves adrift and single in later life. In that weird state of emotional stasis it’s possible to find unusual and innovatory ways to fill life’s gaps, or in Oliver’s case, it could be an imaginative step too far!
