Description
Bienvenue à Three Chimneys, Virginie, dans le tourbillon médiatique qui accompagne la naissance des onze nouveau-nés de Manda Frank. Seulement, aussi vite qu'elle a connu la célébrité, Manda est délaissée par les journalistes. Le village n'a néanmoins pas fini de surprendre l'Amérique : Margaret Prickett, toute dévouée à sa ferme, confectionne un fromage " mammouth ", réplique exacte d'une roue livrée en 1802 au président Jefferson. Il s'agit d'offrir le fromage au candidat à la présidence des Etats-Unis que Margaret soutient pour sa défense de l'agriculture traditionnelle. C'est compter sans Polly, la fille de Margaret, une adolescente qui n'a pas tout à fait la même vision des choses. Entre une mère qui traie son troupeau en le berçant sur des airs de Sinatra et un professeur d'histoire rebelle qui lui apprend à penser par elle-même, Polly se cherche dans cette Amérique en mal de repères. Avec Cheese, Sheri Holman nous plonge au cœur de la vie de personnages banals et excentriques, prêts à tout pour défendre ce en quoi ils croient. Une pastorale sur fond de valeurs américaines qui oscille entre résignation et folie des grandeurs.
