  • MediaDB / «Snooker" Greg Hamilton: download fb2, read online

    About the book: 2013 / A wealthy English family is represented by three generations: Dorothy, her son Jeffrey Champion, his ex-wife Nina Schoenberg and their daughter Penelope. They all lead a rather pretentious lifestyle, often emphasizing their Englishness. All women communicate with each other, not as relatives, but rather as friends, for whom it is not customary to look at age, and their areas of interest often overlap. Jeffrey Champion, who keeps this family together, is a man with a telling name, he is a champion, insanely successful, but suddenly falls into depression. Suddenly, in the life of this high society family, a housekeeper appears, a certain Lucretia Feiserou, giving rise to a whole series of comical and adventurous events that transform the way of life of our heroes. The mysterious Greg Hamilton is a member of the US Dramatists Guild, a native of the post-Soviet space, capable of surprising not only with his colorful pseudonym, but also his non-standard dramaturgy. Non-standard, starting from the very themes of his plays: there are also excellent examples of adventurous drama, created on a truly American scale, but in Russian. There are also those that are closer to docudrama.
