Fannie Flagg is true to herself - a little old-fashioned, devilishly charming and heartfeltly ironic. "Standing Under the Rainbow" is a novel that brings together many of the heroes and characters of the writer's other books. In the cozy provincial town of Elmwood Springs, everyone knows each other, but the lives of its inhabitants are known for hundreds of kilometers, and all thanks to Neighbor Dorothy - a woman with a smiling voice, who runs the city radio and tells the whole country about how her hometown lives. And it lives in a very diverse and exciting way, because each citizen here is special, with their own quirks and conceits. For example, Blind Bird Song - a girl with a divine voice and courage that any sighted person would envy. There is also Cecil, the king of the funeral business, and shy Betty Ray, who is destined to become the governor of the state, and reckless Aunt Elmer, and her proper niece Norma, and many, many others. This book is a real carousel of characters and destinies, of laughter and tears, of the incredible and the ordinary. But above all, this is a novel about time and about the fact that the world is beautiful in any era - you just need to be able to see beauty and happiness behind the everyday husk. And Fannie Flagg can tell about it better than anyone in the world.
