Povratak u grad mimoza

Povratak u grad mimoza

Haywood Smith

The family is the strongest precisely in the biggest crises, new friendships heal old wounds, and there is no love ache or disappointment that a handsome and attractive city pharmacist cannot heal.

After thirty years of "happy" marriage and high-flying life in a posh part of Atlanta, Linwood Breedlove Scott, a fifty-year-old, abandoned and divorced Prozac lover whose only degree in life is a "Southern bitch doctorate" will find herself in a situation that resembles a text from a bad country songs. Her husband recently proposed to a stripper, probably forgetting that he was already married, and before that he spent all the family's savings on entertainment, taking out a mortgage on the house along the way and leaving his family with nothing (except for a few expensive pieces of furniture that they managed to hide at a friend's house )...

Returning to her native Mimosa Branch is the only thing left for Lin, but returning to what she ran away from at the age of nineteen is not at all easy. Life in a small, gossipy southern town where racism is still a common occurrence, with a mother who treats her like a teenager, with a father whose Alzheimer's is in an advanced stage and with a brother who himself has several failed marriages behind him will seem like a new circle to Lin. hell.
