100° oprah winfrey book club pick "radiante e brillantemente realizzata" new york times -----migliori amiche e sorelle, le quattro ragazze padavano portano un caos amorevole nel loro affiatato quartiere italoamericano. William waters è cresciuto in una casa ridotta al silenzio dalla tragedia, dove i suoi genitori non riuscivano quasi a guardarlo, figuriamoci ad amarlo. Così, quando incontra la vivace e ambiziosa julia padavano, è come se il mondo si fosse illuminato intorno a lui. Con julia arriva la sua famiglia: sylvie, la sognatrice della famiglia, è più felice con il naso nei libri; cecelia è un'artista dallo spirito libero; ed emeline si prende pazientemente cura di tutti loro. Ma quando l'oscurità del passato di william inizia a bloccare la luce del suo futuro, è sylvie, non julia, a diventare la sua più intima confidente. Il risultato è una frattura catastrofica che lascia la famiglia a vivere su due lati di una faglia. Riusciranno a ritrovare la strada l'uno per l'altra? l'amore può rendere unita una famiglia distrutta? ----- 'bellissimo, perspicace, malinconico.

hardcover. Condizione: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only. Codice articolo mon0000034627

BEAUTIFUL, PERCEPTIVE, WISTFUL Miranda Cowley Heller ANN NAPOLITANOS WRITING IS ASTONISHING Marian Keyes RADIANT AND BRILLIANTLY CRAFTED New York Times ------------------------------------ Best friends and sisters, the four Padavano girls bring loving chaos to their close-knit Italian American neighbourhood. William Waters grew up in a house silenced by tragedy, where his parents could hardly bear to look at him, much less love him. So, when he meets the spirited and ambitious Julia Padavano, it's as if the world has lit up around him. With Julia comes her family: Sylvie, the family's dreamer, is happiest with her nose in a book; Cecelia is a free-spirited artist; and Emeline patiently takes care of them all. But when darkness from William's past begins to block the light of his future, it is Sylvie, not Julia, who becomes his closest confidante. The result is a catastrophic rift that leaves the family inhabiting two sides of a fault line. Can they find their way back to each other? Can love make a broken family whole? ------------------------------------ A luminously beautiful novel Observer I very nearly missed my stop on the train.
