Mrs Harris Goes to New york.

Product Information

En la segunda entrega de la señora Harris nos encontramos con un tema más oscuro como es el abuso infantil, la sra. Butterfield y ella son vecinos de unos indeseables que le cargan la mano a un niño al que ha abandonado su madre. Cuando la sra. Harris se encuentra con la oferta de ir a Nueva York con los Schreiber para ayudarlos a asentarse en su nuevo piso, le da la inspiración de llevarse al niño con ellas para encontrar a su padre, a quien en su fantasia pinta como un tipo bien situado que estará fascinado de reencontrarse con el niño. I paired my reading with the wonderful audio narration by Juliet Stevenson which I really enjoyed. I loved Mrs. Harris and was immersed in her adventures. I can’t wait to read the remaining books in this series. These stories are perfect for when you crave a read that will leave you with a smile on your face and a warm, happy feeling in your heart! And on and on it goes. Mrs Harris forges ahead, comes upon calamity, regroups (usually with the assistance od some random person completely won over by her twinkling eyes and sterling nature, etcetera) and trots along until the next hurdle pops up. Her creator treats us to occasional moments of musing, and throws a moral or two in as well for good measure, and to appeal to our sentimental natures. The ending is, predictably, a happy one, though not quite as Mrs Harris has envisioned it to be from her earlier altruistic schemings.

Again, things do not go as Mrs. Harris planned and she winds up putting her near and dear ones in serious trouble. But it is still the end of 1950's and things are simpler. El paseo por Nueva York es interesante, y sus ideas de encontrar siempre la bondad en la gente, con unas cuantas excepciones, aunque puede pecar de ingenua porque eso de encontrar un George Brown solamente con el nombre y un par de datos... Su poder secreto, como dice el marques, es hacer que la otra gente se movilice y le importe. Mrs. Harris Goes to Paris: Plot, Cast, and Everything Else We Know". www.movieweb.com. 18 August 2022.

But the unlikely escapade starts off exceedingly well. Henry, a bright young lad, plays along most willingly, and his two sponsors get him on board and manage to keep his presence under wraps until mid-Atlantic, when it becomes apparent that getting the child off the boat at Ellis Island may prove something more of a challenge, what with stringent American customs and immigration officials examining every set of incoming papers with fine tooth combs and such. As for papers, young Henry possesses none. Gulp! Así, lo que mas me ha gustado de esta novela es la propia señora Harris y los valores que esta representa: determinación, amistad, lealtad, perseverancia, justicia... Y es que La señora Harris en Nueva York no deja de ser una oda con tono sarcástico a todas esas mujeres que se levantan cada día y hacen que sus hogares y los de otros funcionen mejor. Un reflejo del sistema de clases de la época. Mrs Harris is a salt-of-the-earth London charlady who cheerfully cleans the houses of the rich. One day, when tidying Lady Dant's wardrobe, she comes across the most beautiful thing she has ever seen in her life - a Dior dress. In all the years of her drab and humble existence, she's never seen anything as magical as the dress before her and she's never wanted anything as much before. Determined to make her dream come true, Mrs Harris scrimps, saves and slaves away until one day, after three long, uncomplaining years, she finally has enough money to go to Paris. Nothing in life ever was a complete and one hundred per cent success, but often one could well afford to settle for less, and this would seem to be the greatest lesson one could learn in life.” (from Mrs. Harris Goes to New York)

I was enjoying the book, but the ending of the first story was such a disappointment that I don't think I want to read the second one - at least, not now. It is light and funny in the beginning and heart-breaking in the end; the film adaptation, curiously, is the other way round: very sad in the beginning, but with an ending that's much less depressing.

La señora Harris en Nueva York es la segunda novela de una serie publicada por Alba que tiene a la señora Harris como protagonista y cuyo primer volumen no he leído. No hacerlo, sin embargo, no me ha impedido reconocer desde las primeras páginas a una señora de la limpieza inglesa luchadora, una mujer de esas que no se amedrentan así por así y de las que se meten en algún lío de más cuando algo se les mete entre ceja y ceja.

Determined to make her dream come true, Mrs. Harris scrimps and saves until one day, after three long, uncomplaining years, she finally has enough money to go to Paris. This, however, became a bit of an irony as I read because the entire time I kept imagining how much better the story must have worked on the big screen as opposed to the book. I really think the magic and sweetness of the plot will work much better on film. Mrs. Harris Goes to New York: A couple of familiar faces from the first book join Mrs. Harris as she travels to America. This time, Mrs. Harris is rescuing an abused 8-year-old boy, and the adventures that follow are delightful. I remained under the charwoman’s spell for the entire story.

In this book, Mrs. Harris is bitten by the bug of acquiring a Dior dress, when she spies one in the wardrobe of one of her clients.

In partnership with the House of Dior, MRS. HARRIS GOES TO PARIS tells the story of a widowed cleaning lady in 1950s London who falls madly in love with a couture Dior dress, and decides that she must have one of her own. After she works, starves and gambles to raise the funds to pursue her dream, she embarks on an adventure to Paris which will change not only her own outlook, but the very future of the House of Dior. Mrs Harris is one of the great creations of fiction - so real that you feel you know her, yet truly magical as well. I can never have enough of her' Justine Picardie Then one day Mrs Harris had a brainwave. What about Henry’s American father?! If there was some way to notify him about his child’s plight, surely he would effect an immediate rescue? One small problem existed: no one knew exactly where Henry’s father now was. The child is, effectively, an orphan. This treasure from the 1950s reintroduces the irrepressible Mrs. Harris, part charlady, part fairy godmother, whose adventures take her from her humble London roots to the heights of glamour.

Surprisingly, I liked it less than the book. I didn’t find the charwoman’s personality nor accent as appealing as I did while listening to the audio. But it was the Hollywood spin the film had that made the story fall short. In the film, they changed the storyline so that the help the charwoman brings about feels even more improbable.
