Operator: Gossip, secrets and lies in a small 1950s town

Berg, Gretchen
9781472264121
'What if you could listen in on any phone conversation in town? With great humor and insight, THE OPERATOR delivers a vivid look inside the heads and hearts of a group of housewives and pokes at the absurdities of 1950s America, a simpler time that was far from simple. Think 'The Marvelous Mrs Maisel' in the suburbs - with delicious turns of jealousy, infidelity, bigotry, and embezzlement thrown in for good measure. The OPERATOR is irresistible!'
