Après en avoir rêvé depuis des années, Phoebe arrive enfin au Cornwall Inn, un luxueux hôtel du XIXe siècle sur la falaise de Newport, dans le Rhode Island. Elle s'est toujours imaginée y séjourner avec son mari, à déguster des huîtres et faire des promenades en bateau au coucher du soleil. C'est finalement seule qu'elle s'y rend, sans bagages, dans sa plus belle robe en soie verte, déterminée à s'offrir une dernière folie avant de mettre fin à ses jours. Car après plusieurs fausses couches et le départ de son mari, Phoebe n'a plus envie de vivre.

When Sam, Jackie and Anna successfully campaign to save their children's school lollipop lady, they are asked by a TV reporter if they fancy standing in the general election. It is, of course, a crazy idea: Sam's youngest son has an incurable disease, Jackie is desperate for another child and her mum is struggling with Alzheimers, Anna's teenagers - and marriage - are in danger of going off the rails. But sometimes the craziest ideas turn out to be the best. And just think what they could do if they got to run the country...

Story
The Invisible Man is a science fiction novel by H. G. Wells. Originally serialized in Pearson's Weekly in 1897, it was published as a novel the same year. The Invisible Man of the title is Griffin, a scientist who has devoted himself to research into optics and invents a way to change a body's refractive index to that of air so that it neither absorbs nor reflects light and thus becomes invisible. He successfully carries out this procedure on himself, but fails in his attempt to reverse it.
