Anstey Harris Knihy

Kdysi nadějná violoncellistka Grace se po prožitém traumatu usazuje v malé anglické vesničce, věnuje se opravám hudebních nástrojů a prožívá vztah „na dálku“ se ženatým milencem Davidem. Vše se ale změní, když David v pařížském metru zachrání život jedné ženě. Stává se z něj „mediální hvězda“ a ve světle jeho slávy najednou spousta věcí vypadá docela jinak než dříve… Kniha, jejíž svérázné postavy si čtenář bezesporu zamiluje zkoumá skutečnosti i pozadí vztahů a rozchodů a ukazuje, že pokud jde o lásku, existuje více než jen jeden způsob, jak najít štěstí.

Silence tore them apart. Can the truth bring them back together? "Marvellous” ―Lesley Pearse "A hauntingly beautiful novel" ―Imogen Clark "Gripping, heart rending and extremely satisfying” ―Katie Fforde In 1960s Glasgow, anti-nuclear activists Judith and Jimmy fall in love. But their future hopes are dashed when their protestors’ squat is raided and many, including Jimmy, are sent to prison. Pregnant and with no word from Jimmy, Judith is forced to enter an unmarried mothers’ home, give up their baby and learn to live with her grief. More than half a century later, Judith’s Mending Shop restores broken treasures, just as Judith herself has been bound back together by her late, much-missed partner, Catherine. But her tranquillity is shattered when Jimmy―so different and yet somehow the same―reappears, yearning to unpick the painful past. Realising they each know only half of the other’s story, Jimmy and Judith finally break the silence that tore apart what might have been their family. Amid heartbreak and hope, how much can now be mended?

Cate doesn't want to be there, in Richard's family home without him to guide her. Araminta, the retainer of the collection of dusty objects and stuffed animals, doesn't want them there either. But, with Richard gone, they have nowhere else to go. As Cate starts to unravel the lies behind Richard - and Leo's - family history, something about the house starts to work its way under her skin
