Here are some quotes from Chris Barton's friends and family when they
found out he was writing a book: "What the Hell are you writing a book
for? Nobody reads nowadays." "Who is going to buy it?" "I hope I am not
in it..." So here it is: 'Beautifully Mundane', the story of David
Banks, husband, father, normal everyday guy who is never going to change
the world, or climb a mountain, or even go into space, but through whose
eyes we can see that there is joy to be had in the normal complexities
of everyday life. We follow his journey as he takes his family away on
holiday to Cornwall, and we discover how much like David Banks we all
are and that the mundane is not something we should be ashamed of but we
can shout from the rooftops with pride. Oh and by the way it is funny
too!!
