Información sobre este eBook
Actress and #1 UK bestselling author Dawn French’s Oh Dear Silvia is the clever, touching, and compelling story of one mysterious woman trapped in a coma.
After a fall from a balcony, Silvia lies unconscious in a hospital bed, plagued by a stream of often funny and sometimes poignant visits from friends and family, each of whom knows a different piece of the puzzle that is Silvia Shute.
And, as she lies there listening to all of her visitors, the dark and terrible secret she’s been hiding for years emerges.
An emotionally resonant and riveting tale of secrets, forgiveness, remorse, guilt, and love, Oh Dear Silvia is “[a] laugh-out-loud novel that is interestingly narrated in alternating chapters by characters with diverse backgrounds and perspectives. This is sure to appeal to fans of contemporary British humor like Absolutely Fabulous or Bridget Jones’s Diary with a dash of mystery mixed in” (Library Journal).
