Beskrivelse
A heartfelt story set during World War II, Still Life explores the unexpected connections that shape our lives. When two strangers meet in a war-torn Tuscan villa, their encounter sparks a journey that changes everything.
A moving tale of love, friendship, and the families we create.
Set in 1944 Italy, amidst the chaos of war, Still Life introduces Ulysses Temper, a young British soldier, and Evelyn Skinner, a 64-year-old art historian living boldly on her own terms. Evelyn is in Italy to rescue paintings from the ravages of conflict and to revisit memories of her youth, especially those tied to an Italian maid and a room with a view.
Their chance meeting in a ruined wine cellar leads to an extraordinary evening that will forever alter Ulysses’ life and deeply affect those who love him back in London.
From the acclaimed author of When God Was a Rabbit and Tin Man, this uplifting and sweeping novel is filled with unforgettable characters and celebrates the beauty found in love, family, and friendship.
