Tres mujeres, tres voces de distintas generaciones. Una oportunidad para reencontrarse. Una novela de la autora de Yo antes de ti.
Otra relación rota y un nuevo amor: es la historia de siempre en la vida de Kate. Sin embargo, no quiere que la situación afecte a su hija Sabine y, sin consultárselo, la envía a casa de sus padres en Irlanda.
Joy y Edward acogen a esta adolescente inquisitiva y problemática, que se niega a adaptarse a un mundo tan rural y tan alejado de su barrio londinense. Y si para Sabine sus abuelos resultan ser unos perfectos desconocidos, para Joy la presencia de su nieta es un revulsivo que la obliga a recuperarse del pasado y enfrentarse a él.
Joy, Kate y Sabine deberán abrir sus corazones, aunque ello las fuerce a romper su silencio, a desvelar sus secretos, a aceptar la verdadera naturaleza del amor y a ahondar en las relaciones no siempre fáciles entre madres e hijas.
Reseña:
«Un absorbente drama familiar.»
Publishers WeeklyENGLISH DESCRIPTION
From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Me Before You, the basis for the major motion picture, comes the touching, unforgettable story of three generations of Irish women faced with the fundamental truths of love, duty, and the unbreakable bond that unites mothers and daughters.
Estranged from her mother since she ran away from her rural Irish home as a young woman, Kate swore a future oath that she'd always be a friend to her daughter, Sabine. But history has a way of repeating itself, and Kate now faces an ever-widening chasm between herself and her daughter. With Sabine about to make her own journey to Ireland to see the grandmother Kate abandoned, Kate is left wondering how they ever made it here, and what she can do to close the gap between them.
For Joy, seeing her granddaughter is a dream come true. After the painful separation from Kate, she's looking forward to having time with Sabine. Yet almost as soon as the young woman arrives, the lack of common ground between them deflates her enthusiasm. And when Sabine's impetuous, inquisitive nature forces Joy to face long-buried secrets from her past, she realizes that perhaps it's time to finally heal old wounds.
"This perceptive...novel does the mother-and-daughter thing in page-turning style."—Elle
