Notting Hell Trilogie

Tato série sžíravě a vtipně nahlíží do životů londýnské smetánky. Sledujeme osudy žen, které na první pohled mají všechno – dokonalé domy, rodiny a společenské postavení. V pozadí však probíhají složité mezilidské vztahy, touhy a nespokojenosti. Příběhy odhalují absurditu a povrchnost elitního života v luxusní čtvrti, kde se honba za úspěchem a dokonalostí střetává s osobními krizemi.

    Mimi Fleming may 'have it all' - the house, the children, the part-time vanity job, the skinny jeans, the feng shui guru, but life chez Fleming is not as cushy as she'd like. When Mimi meets Si, she soon faces a choice of keeping up or keeping it real.

  2. Mimi, Ralph and their three children have moved to the Dorset countryside, a place without a world class deli in spitting distance, a place to get away from the awful competitiveness of London life, where no one cares what you wear, there are no politics to speak of, and you can get away from exhaust fumes. Right? Totally wrong!

Since she's been away, all her friends have become - impossibly - even richer, thinner, and YOUNGER. They're busy not just turning back the clock but also their homes into palatial iceberg houses - with basement swimming pools.But Mimi's troubles are just beginning. There's the compromising and risky mission she'd undertaking to re-launch her so-called journalism career (plus an embarrassing case of mistaken identity thanks to Google). Then there's her children who will only communicate via WhatsApp . And worst of all, Mimi's fallen for someone, and it's certainly not her husband Ralph.Ralph and Mimi have already been to Notting Hell and back. But is this the end or the beginning of something new?
