Amy Sohn Knihy

Park Slope, najkrajšia časť Brooklynu s rajským Prospect Parkom a historickými dvojposchodovými domami, je dejiskom satirickej sondy do života bohémskych tridsiatničiek. Tieto matky, od svojich hipisáckych predchodkýň, sa odlišujú tým, že všetku silu a energiu investujú do svojich detí a snažia sa udržať aj nefunkčné manželstvo. V jedno horúce leto sa pretnú osudy štyroch brooklynských mamičiek na materskej. Herečka Melora Leighová, s dvoma soškami Oscara, čelí stagnácii svojej kariéry a psychickým problémom, zatiaľ čo sa snaží vyrovnať s adoptovaným synom Orionom. Atraktívna redaktorka módneho časopisu Rebecca Rosová sa snaží prekonať frustráciu z druhého miesta v manželovom srdci a neuvážene sa vrhá do aféry s akčným hrdinom. Lizzie O’Donnellová sa snaží byť ideálnou partnerkou čierneho bluesového gitaristu a vzornou mamou, no bojuje s vlastnou sexuálnou orientáciou a odlišnosťou svojho syna. Karen Bryanová je posadnutá svojím synom, túžbou po lepšom byte a závisťou voči Melore, ktorej krásu a bohatstvo obdivuje.

Chcete vědět, jak by to vypadalo, kdyby byl Woody Allen hipster a Sex ve městě napsal on? New York, Brooklyn, Park Slope – tady dnes zakládají rodiny mladí a úspěšní. Nakupují v bioobchodech a na trzích, nosí vintage a samozřejmě rozumí modernímu umění (stačí povrchně – pořád lepší než třeba sledovat baseball a podobné nesmysly, to je přece totálně out). A také se navzájem všichni znají, protože Park Slope je totiž čtvrť vyhlášená rodinným a sousedským prostředím. Až se pro samé kočárky a zahrádky fair trade kaváren skoro nedá projít po chodníku… někdy je tahle „matkárna“ vlastně dost pakárna. Zvlášť když se vám momentálně moc nedaří tak, jako třeba Rebece s Theem nebo Sísí s Gottliebem. Nebo Meloře. A Karen. A vlastně ani u Marka to není žádná sláva…
