Life According to Lubka

It didn't take more than three pages of meeting Lubka before I wanted to adopt her as my grandmother. What a great character. Feet firmly planted on the ground, head wandering happily among the clouds.

It doesn't take long for Buzz Wexler to begin to adore Lubka either, and Buzz isn't one to adore many people. Buzz has become quite cold, over the years, quite cold to the mean world she sees every day in her job as a top-notch music promoter. So when she is asked to accompany the Gorni Grannies, including Lubka, from recently de-Sovietized Bulgaria on their musical tour of England and the US, it is only with the greatest reluctance that she goes along. The Grannies win her heart and rock her world, and to that we say, Thank goodness, Buzz. Her world needed some heavy-duty rocking.
