Over dit e-boek
NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A rich testament to the depths of passion and grief, this “exquisite [and] beautifully realized work” (The Boston Globe) explores time, memory, and love’s transcendence.
“In spare and lovely language, Susan Minot has set forth a real life, in all its particularity and splendor and pain.”—The New York Times Book Review (Best Books of the Year)
July 1954. Ann Grant—a twenty-five-year-old New York career girl—is a bridesmaid at her best friend’s lavish wedding on an island off the coast of Maine. Also present is a man named Harris Arden, whom Ann has never met . . .
After three marriages and five children, Ann Lord lies dying in an upstairs bedroom of a house in Cambridge, Massachusetts. What comes up to her, eclipsing a stream of doctor’s visits and friends stopping by and grown children overheard whispering from the next room, is a rush of memories from a weekend forty years ago in Maine, when she fell in love with a passion that even now throws a shadow onto the rest of her life.
