Girls Like Flowers

Do you know that feeling when your life turns upside down in a single year? Amber, her mother Lorraine, and her grandmother Kay know it well. Young Amber often feels unwell in the mornings and has only one explanation: "Lately I've been drinking like a fish." Desperate Lorraine takes her psychologist's advice to "do herself at least one favour this week" and lets herself be persuaded to take a beginner's salsa class. And Grandmother Kay? Despite the demanding care of her sick husband, she still wants to live. As she says herself: "Damn it, I'm not dead, I'm just on the wrong side of sixty!"

Three ordinary women share their joys, sorrows, and most intimate secrets with us - without unnecessary sentimentality and with a generous dose of humour. Their disarming honesty and considerable self-irony can move you and make you laugh at the same time.
