It`s 1952. The switchboard operators in Wooster, Ohio, love nothing more than to eavesdrop on their neighbours` conversations, and gossip about what they learn. Vivian Dalton is no different (despite her teenage daughter`s disapproval), and always longs to hear something scandalous. But on the night of December 15th, she wishes she hadn`t. The secret that`s shared by a stranger on the line threatens to rip the rug of Vivian`s life from under her. Vivian may be mortified, but she`s not going to take this lying down. She wants the truth, no matter how painful it may be. But one secret tends to lead to another . . . This moving, heart-felt and ultimately uplifting novel brilliantly weaves together an irresistible portrayal of a town buzzing with scandal, and an unforgettable story of marriage, motherhood and the unbreakable ties of family. `Funny, sweet, secretive, and full of fascinating 1930s, 40s, and 50s period details... a poignant look at life in a small Town with its nosy neighbors, thorny families, imperfect romances, scandalous pasts, and gratifyingly just deserts. Nothing is as simple - nor as dreadful - as it seems` Laurie Frankel, bestselling author of THIS IS HOW IT ALWAYS IS `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!` Kathryn Stockett, bestselling author of THE HELP `Just finished THE OPERATOR in an unstoppable rush and it was every bit as glorious, gossipy, delicious and perfect as I`d hoped. Absolute heaven!` Jill Mansell, bestselling author of MAYBE THIS TIME
