Don is now a retired school teacher. ==Plot== The Scene: 21 August 2010, Don invites old friends around for a party the night of the federal election. It’s 21 August 2010, the night of yet another federal election and, of course, yet another election night party at Don’s place. Over the decades, as he and his friends watched governments come and go, they have also closely followed the incoming results from each other’s lives: the tallies of luck and misfortune, the unexpected swings for and against. And through it all, the lesson that this crowd of superannuated Baby Boomers never seemed to learn is that politics and strong personalities should never be mixed with alcohol. The friends have all aged and been affected by life's experiences very differently over the decades. Views have polarized and surprised. Full of humor and surprises, a new classic and a fascinating comment on life from a boomer's perspective. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Don Parties On」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
