Description
All Together Now by Gill Hornby is a heartwarming contemporary fiction novel about community, friendship, family and second chances, set in a small English town that has lost its sense of connection.
Bridgeford is struggling. Its town centre is empty, local businesses are closing and its residents have become increasingly disconnected from one another. But the town’s overlooked community choir may offer an unexpected way to bring people together.
With an important competition approaching, the choir needs new members and a fresh sound. Its unlikely recruits include a mother dealing with an empty nest, a recently unemployed man whose family life has fallen apart, and a nineteen-year-old waitress dreaming of television fame. As these very different neighbours learn to sing—and live—together, they discover that rebuilding a community may start with simply getting to know the people next door.
Charming and uplifting, All Together Now explores community, family, friendship, love, belonging and the unexpected connections that can transform both individuals and a town.
A good choice for readers who enjoy contemporary women’s fiction, feel-good novels, community stories and uplifting books about ordinary people coming together.
