Fenny Flagg is true to herself - a little old -fashioned, damn charming and sincerely ironic. "Standing under the rainbow" is a novel in which many of the heroes and characters of the other books of the writer gathered. In the provincial-yielding town of Elmwood-Springs, everyone knows each other, but about the life of its inhabitants is known for hundreds of kilometers, and all thanks to a neighbor Dorothy-a woman with a smiling voice, who leads urban radio and all the country talks about how he lives- Her native town is doing. And he is doing very diverse and exciting, because every citizen is special here, with his quirks and fanaberia. Here, for example, a blind singer’s bird is a girl with a divine voice and courage, which any sighted will envy. There is also Cecil, the king of the funeral business, and the shy Betty Ray, who is destined to become the governor of the state, and the reckless aunt Elmer, and her correct niece, the norm, and many, many others. In this book, a real carousel of characters and fate, from laughter and tears, from incredible and ordinary. But first of all, this is a novel about the time and that the world is beautiful in any era - you only need to be able to see beauty and happiness for everyday husk. And Fenny Flag can tell about this better than anyone else.
Fenny Flagg - of those few authors whose wise and poetic books leave a long and amazingly pleasant aftertaste. The charming, funny and puppy -prose prose of Fenny Flag is a universal remedy for despondency. With pleasure, getting rid of the cozy world of her novels, we get an excellent chance for a while to forget about our anxiety and difficulties.
