Description

Tom Hope's life has been marked by routine and solitude since his wife Trudy left. He finds comfort in the simple tasks of farm work, but the ache of loneliness remains. When Hannah Babel, a vibrant bookseller, enters his life, Tom is drawn to her warmth and enthusiasm. She proposes an unlikely partnership: helping her build a bookshop, and Tom agrees, hoping it might bring him happiness too. As they embark on this new venture, their pasts begin to surface. Hannah's own history of loss and resilience is revealed, and Tom confronts the depth of his heartbreak. The year is 1968, twenty-four years since Hannah's family faced unimaginable hardship at Auschwitz. Their story becomes a poignant exploration of love, loss, and the power of human connection. In this moving novel, Robert Hillman weaves a narrative that is both deeply personal and universally relatable.
