Violet is released from prison after a twenty-two month sentence for a car accident that killed a man. In prison, she had an outlet: a book club run by retired teacher Harriet. Violet dreads the future, the past pressing down on her with a heavy weight of guilt. Retired teacher Frank is the husband of the woman Violet killed in that car accident. He can't get used to his current loneliness, though he feels he has always been alone. These three, a girl and two unattached pensioners, meet in a small bookstore. And from that moment on, their fates will weave into a tight knot. Violet will become a teacher of charming parrots, who will be smarter than many people. Harriet will suddenly emerge from her respectable but dull existence to take a fresh look at her surroundings. And Frank... for him, in fact, everything is just beginning. Full of humor, very warm, tender book about how to accept yourself and your past, how to learn to live with guilt, that there is always a second chance, even if now it seems that the darkness will never dissipate. And of course, that books can do a lot, you just need to learn how to read them correctly. And, without any doubt, after Monica Wood's novel you will love Jaco parrots.
