Man kann sich einfach nicht in Ruhe umbringen, wenn andere dabei zusehen. Und so kommt es, dass die vier Lebensmu den, die sich Silvester auf dem Dach eines Hochhauses begegnen, nicht springen, sondern sich gegenseitig ihre Geschichten erza hlen: die Hausfrau Maureen, der ehemals beru hmte Talkmaster Martin, das ebenso aufmu pfige wie unverstandene Ma dchen Jess und der glu cklose Musiker JJ. Die vier verabreden, mit dem finalen Sprung bis zum Valentinstag zu warten - und so findet eine Gruppe von Menschen zueinander, die unterschiedlicher nicht sein ko nnten und die einander doch auf wundersame Weise zu helfen wissen.

Work Description

Meet Martin, JJ, Jess, and Maureen. Four people who come together on New Year's Eve: a former TV talk show host, a musician, a teenage girl, and a mother. Three are British, one is American. They encounter one another on the roof of Topper's House, a London destination famous as the last stop for those ready to end their lives.

In four distinct and riveting first-person voices, Nick Hornby tells a story of four individuals confronting the limits of choice, circumstance, and their own mortality. This is a tale of connections made and missed, punishing regrets, and the grace of second chances.
