Лори Грэм — новинки

The years are rolling on for Peggy and her friends Gayle, Lois, Audrey and Betty and time is rendering its Accounts Payable for all of them.
But it will take more than death, house moves, cataracts, broken hips and the world-changing events of 9/11 to put these ladies down. Whatever twenty-first century America has in store for them, they'll face it together with smiles on their faces - and a bottle of bourbon in their handbags.

Birdie Gibbs lives on the seventh floor of an East End high-rise. She hates it, and she hates the hooligans. And she gets pretty bored. Ok, she's old, but that doesn't mean she's satisfied with a pair of slippers and a good book. Her best friend constantly taunts her with threats of an old people's home. But Birdie's resolute – she's not going anywhere near one of those places. She keeps herself busy, it's better to wear out than rust out. And when ex-husband Jimmy Dwyer turns up out of the blue with a greyhound that needs a home, Birdie thinks things might be on the up. But he vanishes just as quickly, leaving behind him some memories of the past that Birdie would rather forget. Laugh-out-loud funny – this is classic Laurie Graham.
