Set against the backdrop of The Troubles in 1970s Northern Ireland, Funny Peculiar is the humorous and moving story of a girl resisting the pain and shame of sexual abuse and staying in love with life. Told with bitter humor as it weaves together dog shows and the Orange Order, Bloody Friday and the Wombles, sexual abuse and the Silver Jubilee, Funny Peculiar vibrates with the secret triumphs of a child fighting back. As her family starts to disintegrate and the Troubles continue into a second decade, Constance tries to make sense of the meaning of loyalty and betrayal within her family and community. A sensitive and observant girl, Constance survives her abuse and emerges strong and determined, with a passion for life, love and laughter.
