Veronica Henry

    1 gennaio 1963

    Prima di dedicarsi alla narrativa, Veronica Henry ha affinato la sua arte come sceneggiatrice televisiva. I suoi romanzi offrono un realistico escapismo, con ambientazioni splendide che fanno da sfondo a personaggi alle prese con problemi e dilemmi riconoscibili. La scrittura di Henry esplora abilmente le complessità delle relazioni umane e delle emozioni, attirando i lettori in mondi che appaiono sia aspirazionali che profondamente familiari. Crea storie che risuonano con una comprensione autentica delle sfide della vita.

    Quando l'amore nasce in libreria
    • In un paesino vicino a Oxford si nasconde un posto speciale. È una piccola libreria dove gli scaffali arrivano fino al soffitto e pile di libri occupano ogni angolo disponibile. Emilia è cresciuta qui, e tra le pagine di Madame Bovarye una prima edizione di Emma ha imparato che i libri possono anche curare l'anima. È proprio questo che suo padre ha fatto per tutta la sua vita, e ora è compito di Emilia: aiutare i suoi clienti grazie ai libri. Ma adesso la libreria è in pericolo. I conti non tornano, e un uomo d'affari senza scrupoli vorrebbe costruire qui degli appartamenti di lusso. La tentazione di vendere è enorme, ma Emilia deve tenere fede alla promessa che ha fatto al padre. Grazie alle parole di Camus, Salinger, Burgess e Kerouac, forse riuscirà a trovare la chiave per risolvere i suoi problemi. Manca solo quella per aprire il suo cuore...

    • "Cherry, Maggie and Rose are mother, daughter and granddaughter, each with their own hopes, dreams and even sorrows. They have always been close, so when, in a moment of impulse, Cherry buys a gorgeous but rundown pub in the village she grew up in, it soon becomes a family affair. All three women uproot themselves and move to Rushbrook, deep in the heart of Somerset, to take over The Swan and restore it to its former glory. Cherry is at the helm, Maggie is in charge of the kitchen, and Rose tends the picturesque garden that leads down to the river. Before long, the locals are delighted to find the beating heart of the village is back, bringing all kinds of surprises through the door. Could Cherry's impulse purchase change all their lives - and bring everyone the happiness they're searching for?"--Publisher
