Als Mutter streikte

Rate this book
Befremdliche Stille herrscht in dem großen Haus der Familie Kemble, als die siebzehnjährige Viola an ihrem letzten Schultag heimkommt. Etwas Unfaßbares ist geschehen: Mutter ist fort - 'und nicht nur für einen Tag', erklärt Vater trocken, der über die neueste Eskapade seiner so liebenswerten wie unberechenbaren Frau offenbar kaum erstaunt ist. Wiederum dürfen sich die unzähligen Leser, die die Familie Pentecost und Gaylord, den Schlingel, ins Herz geschlossen haben, auf einen vergnüglichen Roman und eine nicht minder turbulente Familie freuen.

I utterly adore this book, but somehow I can't get anyone else to. It is by no means brilliant, but it thoroughly enjoyable, charming, funny and heart warming. I've been re-reading this book since I was a teenager so am very attached for nostalgic reasons, but even reading it as an adult I love it just as much as I did then.

Slight but fun. Very dated. It was written in the 1970's but feels set in an earlier time. A good 25 cent purchase found on a shelf outside a used bookstore in Madison, WI.
