About This Book

Daisy is sixteen. She was normal. Now she's just an ill person with a disease no one has heard of. The hospital tells her father Peter that she must travel regularly to London for specialist treatment – but how on earth will he get time off work? There's one person he could ask for help. Problem is, Daisy's not going to like it… Responsible Other is a bittersweet comedy which examines the complexities of family life.

ALICE has let herself in. She is wearing school uniform. DAISY appears to be asleep.
