http://schema.org/description

  • "At the Valley View Motel in South Australia's picturesque Clare Valley, 84-year-old Lola Quinlan is up to her usual mischief. She's sent her family away for Christmas and invited a number of mystery guests to come and stay. But who are all these people, and why aren't they spending the festive season with their own loved ones? As the big day draws closer and Lola's personal family dramas threaten to unravel her plans, she discovers that at a special time of year, magic can happen in every family, especially your own. A funny and sad and moving novel about the very meaning of life, Lola's Secret has touched the hearts of women the world over."
  • "Nestled in a picturesque corner of southern Australia, the Valley View Motel has been run by the Quinlans for years-- and nobody adores the place more than Lola, the family's lovable and mischievous Irish-born matriarch. So when she insists that her relatives spend their Christmas elsewhere, the close-knit bunch can't help but be a bit curious. Plotting in secret and online, Lola thinks it would be fun to invite a select group of strangers to stay at the motel for Christmas, but her own family dramas threaten to upend her best-laid plans."
  • "Der neue grosse Familienroman der australischen Bestsellerautorin. Das Valley View Motel im idyllischen südaustralischen Clare Valley wird von der irischen Familie Quinlan geführt, deren unangefochtenes Oberhaupt die liebenswert eigenwillige 84-jährige Lola ist. Sie spannt nicht nur die Brigade ihrer Freundinnen ein, um für das seelische Wohl ihrer Enkelinnen zu sorgen, sondern verkuppelt auch gerne einsame Herzen. Nur ihre eigenen Herzensangelegenheiten sind ein wohlgehütetes Geheimnis. Doch Lolas Freundinnen und die Frauen von Clare Valley sind sich einig: Für die grosse Liebe ist es nie zu spät. Monica McInerney ist mit ihren sechs Geschwistern in Clare Valley in Australien aufgewachsen. Ihre Romane stehen sowohl dort als auch in ihrer neuen Heimat Irland immer wieder auf den Bestsellerlisten. Für "Die Töchter der Familie Faraday" wurde ihr in Australien die Auszeichnung "General Fiction Book of the Year" verliehen, und auch für "Die Frauen von Clare Valley" und "Das Haus am Hyde Park" war sie wieder nominiert. Zurzeit lebt sie mit ihrem Mann in Dublin."
