Description

Heaven and Earth by Paolo Giordano is set in Puglia, Italy, where Teresa spends her summers with her father. There, she becomes immersed in her grandmother's cheap crime paperbacks and develops a deep connection with the land and its people. As Teresa gets to know the three boys who live on the masseria next door - Nicola, Tommaso, and Bern - she forms an unbreakable bond with them. However, no bond is unassailable, and Teresa soon discovers that her summer of idyllic tranquility will not last forever. Paolo Giordano's vivid prose brings to life the textures, smells, heat, and colours of the Italian south, creating a breathtaking and poignant portrayal of love, obsession, and the human experience.
