Hearing Trumpet

One of the first things ninety-two-year-old Marian Leatherby overhears when she is given an ornate hearing trumpet is her family plotting to commit her to an institution. Soon, she finds herself trapped in a sinister retirement home, where the elderly must inhabit buildings shaped like igloos and birthday cakes.

Unul dintre primele lucruri pe care Marian Leatherby, in varsta de nouazeci si doi de ani, le aude atunci cand i se da o trompeta auditiva ornamentata este ca familia ei comploteaza sa o angajeze intr-o institutie. In curand, ea se trezeste prinsa intr-o casa de batrani sinistra, unde batranii trebuie sa locuiasca in cladiri in forma de igluuri si prajituri de ziua de nastere.
