Overview Skilsmission

Daria loves boxing, but hates that her parents are so unengaged in both her and her interests. While Bendik, the annoying boy next door, gets everything he wants from his father – after his parents got divorced. That makes Daria think. Isn't it always more fun when she's with just one of her parents? If they get divorced, wouldn't that solve everything?

Daria creates a mission for herself. Mission: Divorceable.
Full of sharp humour, unlikely friendships, and the chaos of childhood – featuring energy drinks, nosebleeds, a dinner with Dad’s lesbian ex-girlfriend, diamond rings in frozen dog poop and a very grown-up book club – this is a wildly funny debut about family, friendship and finding your place in the world.
