Mark Jones, a twenty-three-year-old supermarket worker in Herne Bay, doesn't have a lot going for him. He's earning the minimum wage, is still living with his parents, and his favourite hobby is PlayStation.
But one evening after work, he eats a packet of crisps on the cliff top and watches the sun go down over the Thames estuary. When he throws the empty packet into a litter bin, a gust of wind suddenly blows the packet away. He has no idea how completely this chance event will change his life.
The Crisp Packet is one of the most original novels you'll ever read. It tells the story of Mark's odyssey into life and the accidental mayhem he causes before he finally finds true love with a woman who's even more unusual than he is. The Crisp Packet is bizarre, funny, disturbing, thought-provoking, and highly entertaining. Meet Mark Jones, a hero of our times!
