Descriere magazin:
Named one of 2019\'s most anticipated reads by Entertainment Weekly , "a hilarious and witty joy of a novel about a family\'s insanely dramatic summer at their new island home" ( Cosmopolitan ) in the Pacific Northwest. The inimitable--some might say incorrigible--Frank
Widdicombe is suffering from a deep depression. Or so his wife, Carol, believes. But Carol is convinced that their new island home--Willowbrook Manor on the Puget Sound--is just the thing to cheer him up. And so begins a whirlwind summer as their house becomes the epicenter of multiple social dramas involving the family, their friends, and a host of new acquaintances. The Widdicombes\' son, Christopher, is mourning a heartbreak after a year abroad in Italy. Their personal assistant, Michelle, begins a romance with preppy screenwriter Bradford, who also happens to be Frank\'s tennis partner. Meanwhile, a local named Marvelous Matthews is hired to create a garden at the manor--and is elated to find Gracie Sloane, bewitching self-help author, in residence as well. When this alternately bumbling and clever cast of characters comes together, they turn "as frothy and bitter as a pot of freshly brewed dark-roast coffee, the kind that\'s always available on the
Widdicombe\'s sideboard. And the dialogue, oh how it singes and sears" ( The Washington Post ). A "gleefully over-the-top satiric debut" ( Kirkus Reviews ),
Cheer Up, Mr.
Widdicombe is perfect for fans of Maria Semple\'s Where\'d You Go, Bernadette? , Andrew Sean Greer\'s Less , and Jess Walter\'s Beautiful Ruins.
