520    "Life is waiting to happen to Hubert Bird. But first he 
       has to open his front door and let it in. In weekly phone 
       calls to his daughter in Australia, widower Hubert Bird 
       paints a picture of the perfect retirement, packed with 
       fun, friendship, and fulfilment. But he's lying. The truth
       is day after day drags by without him seeing a single 
       soul. Until he receives some good news - good news that in
       one way turns out to be the worst news ever, news that 
       will force him out again, into a world he has long since 
       turned his back on. Now Hubert faces a seemingly 
       impossible task: to make his real life resemble his fake 
       life before the truth comes out. Along the way Hubert 
       stumbles across a second chance at love, renews a 
       cherished friendship, and finds himself roped into an 
       audacious community scheme that seeks to end loneliness 
       once and for all . . . Life is certainly beginning to 
       happen to Hubert Bird. But with the origin of his earlier 
       isolation always lurking in the shadows, will he ever get 
       to live the life he's pretended to have for so long?"--
