Vilken bra roman! En helt enkelt magnifik och mycket engagerande historia om en Atlanta kvinnas kamp på en ö i New England där hon befinner sig i hopp om att kunna finna sig själv och sin väg i livet. På ön tvingas hon ta tag i snöstormar, en enbent cancersjuk granne, dementa damer, en deprimerad far, en otrogen make, en död mor och två ganska så egensinniga svanar. Såväl gripande som underhållande! Jag önskar nästan att den varit ännu längre. Men det här är definitivt inte den sista boken av Anne Rivers Siddons som jag läst. En mycket stark 5:a i betyg från mig! Kan varmt rekommenderas!
