  • "When twelve extraordinary members of the Women s Institute decide they need to find a new way to raise money for a very worthy cause, they turn to their annual calendar. Not wanting to divorce themselves from the traditional photographs, they give the calendar a very untraditional twist. Behind the baked goods, the apple pressing and the flower arrangements are the women completely nude! This heartfelt story will have you laughing and crying at the same time."

When one of the women's husbands dies from leukaemia, they decide that their prim and proper fundraising efforts need a bit of a shake-up.

  • "Chris e Annie vivono a Knapely, un tranquillo villaggio dello Yorkshire. Sono amiche da una vita, ed entrambe sono membri del Women's Institute locale, che tra le varie attività organizza raccolte di fondi per beneficenza. Quando il marito di Annie muore di leucemia, Chris ha l'idea di raccogliere soldi per l'ospedale del paese tramite un calendario. Insieme ad altre socie dell'istituto e con l'aiuto di un fotografo amatoriale realizzano così il calendario che vede ritratte dodici donne impiegate in normali attività domestiche - come confezionare le marmellate, preparare dolci e realizzare composizioni di frutta e fiori - ma con un particolare non troppo convenzionale: sono infatti ritratte senza vestiti. L'iniziativa riscuote un successo tale da portare Chris e le compagne alla ribalta non solo in Inghilterra ma anche in America, dove vengono ospitate in un famoso talk show. (LaFeltrinelli)."
