En savoir plus sur le livre
George, a recently widowed seventy-nine-year-old, reflects on his near-miss as a rock star in the 1960s, feeling unfulfilled and unhappy. His teenage granddaughter, Tara, escapes her bickering parents by moving in with him. Meanwhile, Toby, George’s son-in-law, wants to place George in a care home. George harbors two secrets: the true reason behind his stalled music career and the deep disappointment he feels over missed opportunities. Yearning for one last chance, he is drawn to a long-lost relative with a troubled past. For Tara, living with her grandfather offers a chance to explore her own musical ambitions, but she struggles with the generational clash and the memories embedded in George’s home. Their relationship begins on shaky ground, as George disapproves of Tara's music, which he finds unbearable. However, as they navigate their differences, they discover shared strengths and similarities, including their mutual inability to operate a dishwasher. When Toby inadvertently triggers a series of events, Tara faces a life-changing decision mirroring the one her grandfather confronted decades earlier, forcing both to confront their pasts and aspirations.
