Lude žene

Lude žene

Michael Lee West

The novel "Mad Women" is full of laughter and love, pain and redemption, and is told by women's voices as rich and recognizable as their times.

Young Miss Gussie, like all the women in her family, did what she had to do when death came to her kitchen door. And the women in her family were: Gussie's daughter Dorothy, who married a small shopkeeper in the hope that money would cure her pride and a terrible jealousy; the plucky Clancy Jane, so sweet you'd never expect her to get into trouble, and whose life is clouded by the dark cloud of Vietnam; and her granddaughters: the unattractive but clever Violet, who longs for the mother and father she barely knew; and little Bitsy, who seeks a way out of her limited life and eccentric family.
