Sinopse
The elderly often get bad press, but teenager Buzz was blown away when he found out how his Granny Em had put his lessons on computing to very unusual use ("Grannies dot com"). Harry Briggs was another one who managed to turn the tables with a little help from his grandson and modern technology ("Wake Up Call"). In contrast, Elli ("The Class of '65") and Phillida ("The Don't Care Generation") had both left an impression on the Third World; Alice learned at last to stand up for herself ("The Wrong Track"), Robert Sinclair kept his exploits to himself ("Reluctant Hero"), and Astra finally solved the mystery of her father's World War Two trauma ("Just Nineteen Days"). But maybe the last word remains with Ben whose mantra provided the title for this book. When pushed about his uncertain future, he unfailingly said "It'll Be Better Tomorrow."
These are some of the stories of Manorsfields' residents, their relatives and their caregivers. There is humor, poignancy, even romance, but above all they demonstrate that life is very often stranger than fiction.
