Maggiori informazioni sul libro
In a small town in 1950s America, switchboard operator Vivian Dalton knows everyone’s secrets, thanks to her intuitive eavesdropping. While her teenage daughter, Charlotte, views it as mere snooping, Vivian and her colleagues at Bell on East Liberty Street connect lives and gossip. They overhear conversations that reveal the town's dynamics, including Mrs. Butler's ungrateful daughter and Ginny Frazier's social rejections. However, everything changes one cold December night when Vivian listens in on a shocking call involving the snobbish Betty Miller. The revelation threatens to upend Vivian's orderly life, risking her reputation and making her the subject of town gossip. Determined to uncover the truth behind the rumor, Vivian embarks on a quest for answers, aware that in a close-knit community like Wooster, one secret often leads to another. As she digs deeper, she confronts the complexities of her relationships and the hidden truths that bind the townspeople together, revealing the absurdities and challenges of life in a seemingly simple era. Vivian's journey is one of resilience, as she navigates the delicate balance between truth and the potential fallout it brings.
