Produktbeschreibung
Diana Parks was once a country-rock star who traded in the limelight to go into business with her husband. While visiting Charleston she is reunited with old friends, psychologist Eve Hayes, and socialite Lucy Pendleton, and when they gather at Lucy's stately (and lonely) antebellum home, it turns into a wine and marijuana-fueled recollection of their college summers. Those carefree days spent at Folly Beach inspired them to seek out their dreams, but now those days seem so far away from the disillusionments of their adulthood. As their lives fall apart, and regrets become clear, they find comfort in their renewed friendship and solace in getting high and Waltzing in Vienna. WALTZING in VIENNA is a tale of three different women who cope with middle age relying upon friendship, wine and marijuana. The narrative neatly examines love, lust and independence from the viewpoint of traditional and non-traditional women in the new South, using the works of Kate Chopin and Virginia Woolf for inspiration. "They were floating in the night's seaborne air like spindrift on the water's surface. It was a moment they would always remember, under the magical open space of the sky and the stars.""Wow! What a book! This was one of the most beautifully constructed novels I have ever read. It was a real celebration of women, their friendships and the empowerment that these bring."www.chicklitclub.com/waltzinginvienna.html"...a fun Sex and the City or Ya-Ya Sisterhood vibe to this recommended debut novel."Rebecca Foster - thebookbag.co.uk
