Summer light and relaxed comedy, very warm and kind. And although the novel is entertaining, it raises a difficult question about how to bring bridges between generations, how very young people and people of advanced age can not only find a common language, but also unite.
Lizzi is fifteen years old, she decides to spend the summer holidays with benefit and work in the nursing home - the lesson is no worse than to be caught by Pinkam or to exhausted from boredom for days, dangling with girlfriends. However, it soon turns out that communicating with the elderly is not so simple that the audience is not at all as harmless as it might seem at first glance, and in terms of activity they can be a head of any fifteen-year-old. To begin with, you will have to understand that each ward has a whole life behind her dramas, unexpected turns. Then it will be necessary to find a common language with them. And there is nothing better for rallying than the sudden problems.
A competing nursing House decided to ruin a "paradise" and stir up all its guests. It turns out that it turns out that the life experience and unpredictability of pensioners, multiplied by Lizzy’s desire to arrange other people"s lives - this is a real secret weapon in the fight against predatory competitors.
Nina Stibbe jokes, issued with a stone-sophomatic face, perfectly shade the eccentric charm of her heroes. Great cocktail from comedy, good history and light British absurdity.
"Paradise" is a touching, kind, full of inimitable English humor story about the value of family ties, friendship, first love and ordinary human kindness
