Apunta't a LibraryThing per saber si aquest llibre et pot agradar. No hi ha cap discussió a Converses sobre aquesta obra. Una joven desaparece sin dejar rastro en una noche lluviosa de julio. Algunos años más tarde, sus restos son descubiertos por tres niños al desenterrar un tesoro que ellos mismos escondieron en el bosque. La joven, Mille, fue vista por última vez en la lujosa fiesta celebrada por la familia y amigos de Jenny Brodal, para celebrar su 75 cumpleaños. La desaparición de Mille afecta a todos los que han tenido alguna relación con ella: los que la deseaban, los que la buscaron, los que le dieron la espalda cuando la encontraron llorando, los que la mataron, los que trataron de olvidarla. Poco a poco emerge una historia de amor, confusión y engaño, de vidas secretas y dolorosos apegos. I registered this book at BookCrossing.com! http://www.BookCrossing.com/journal/14536934 I read this some months ago and I don't remember details. Siri and Jon hire Milla to care for their children while Siri works at her restaurant and Jon struggles to complete a book. Then Milla turns up dead. Her death awakens memories in many persons and challenges others. It is mostly a story of a family and the complexities that invade their relationships. I wish I had written this while it was still fresh! Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya

HTML:Named in the New York Times Book Review's 100 Notable Books of 2014! Ullmann's characters are complex and paradoxical: neither fully guilty nor fully innocent Siri Brodal, a chef and restaurant owner, is married to Jon Dreyer, a famous novelist plagued by writer's block. Siri and Jon have two daughters, and together they spend their summers on the coast of Norway, in a mansion belonging to Jenny Brodal, Siri's stylish and unforgiving mother. Siri and Jon's marriage is loving but difficult, and troubled by painful secrets. They have a strained relationship with their elder daughter, Alma, who struggles to find her place in the family constellation. When Milla is hired as a nanny to allow Siri to work her long hours at the restaurant and Jon to supposedly meet the deadline on his book, life in the idyllic summer community takes a dire turn. One rainy July night, Milla disappears without a trace. After her remains are discovered and a suspect is identified, everyone who had any connection with her feels implicated in her tragedy and haunted by what they could have done to prevent it. The Cold Song is a story about telling stories and about how life is continually invented and reinvented. No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |
