Anteprima: "Vacanze in villa" di Madeleine Wickham (alias Sophie Kinsella)


Titolo: Vacanze in villa
Titolo originale: Sleeping Arrangements
Autore: Medeleine Wickham
Editore: Mondadori
Collana: Omnibus
Pagine: 264
Prezzo: 19.00€

Sophie Kinsella, al secolo Madeleine Wickham, torna nelle nostre librerie con un nuovo divertente romanzo. "Vacanze in villa", in uscita il 29 MARZO, fa parte di quel corpus letterario scritto dall'autrice inglese con il suo vero nome e quando ancora il successo planetario della serie I love shopping era ben lontano. Ne fanno parte anche La signora dei funerali, La compagna di scuola, entrambi già usciti in Italia, e gli ancora inediti ma di sicura pubblicazione per la Mondadori: The Tennis Party, Swimming Pool Sunday, A Desiderable Residence e The Wedding Girl.
In Vacanze in villa la Wickham racconta con grande naturalezza e sensibilità, senza rinunciare al consueto tocco di humour ma più "seriosa" rispetto al solito, le dinamiche di due coppie in crisi riuscendo così a creare una commedia sofisticata sulla difficoltà di difendere l'amore dalle insidie dell'abitudine e della quotidianità.

Trama
Metti una splendida villa andalusa, due coppie infelici e un'imprevista vacanza insieme: che cosa succederà? Chloe ha davvero bisogno di una vacanza. Non ne può più di confezionare abiti nuziali, lei poi che non è neanche sposata! Ed è un momento delicato perché Philip, il suo compagno, ha seri problemi di lavoro e non riesce a pensare ad altro. Meno male che Gerard, uno dei suoi più cari amici, le presta la sua meravigliosa villa in Spagna dove trascorrere qualche giorno in pace... Perfetto!
Hugh non è felice. Amanda, la sua impeccabile moglie, sembra più interessata ai colori delle pareti del loro lussuoso appartamento che a lui, e a Hugh non resta che lavorare dalla mattina alla sera, trascurando la sua famiglia e soprattutto trasformandosi in un estraneo per le sue due bambine. Ma Gerard, un vecchio compagno di scuola che ha rincontrato per caso, gli dà l'occasione di spezzare questa opprimente routine proponendogli un breve soggiorno nella sua casa in Spagna... Perfetto!
E così Chloe e Hugh si ritrovano con le rispettive famiglie nello stesso momento e nello stesso posto, scoprendo con grande disappunto che Gerard ha promesso la villa a entrambi. Dopo lo sconcerto iniziale, sono costretti a convivere tra piccoli disagi e, soprattutto, tensioni sotterranee. Perché Chloe e Hugh hanno un passato in comune, un passato che torna prepotentemente a galla durante una vacanza che si rivelerà piena di imprevisti e sorprese

L'autrice
Madeleine Wickham è il vero nome di Sophie Kinsella. Questo è uno dei romanzi scritti dall’autrice a poco più di vent’anni, prima che diventasse famosa con la serie di I love shopping. Della Wickham Mondadori ha pubblicato La signora dei funerali (2008) e La compagna di scuola (2010).

  13. Ι thіnk that evеrything publіѕheԁ
    was very lοgicаl. However, what аbout this?

    what if you аdԁed a little content? I mean, I don't wish to tell you how to run your blog, but suppose you added a post title that makes people want more? I mean "Anteprima: "Vacanze in villa" di Madeleine Wickham (alias Sophie Kinsella)" is kinda vanilla. You should look at Yahoo'ѕ home page and see how they cгeate pоst titles
    to grab people to open the linκs. Υou
    might add a videо οr a relateԁ piсture or tωo to grаb people еxсited about whаt
    yοu've got to say. In my opinion, it could make your posts a little livelier.
