The house where summer lives
19.99 €
Louise and her three children have come to spend the summer at her parents' house in a cozy seaside town in Maine. It's not so much a vacation as an escape from problems - her marriage to Stephen is on the rocks; the book Louise is about to hand in has never been written; the children have grown up and require more attention. But Louise hopes that the upcoming summer days in an idyllic place will dispel all the problems and life will get better again. But returning to her beloved home only makes things worse. Her father, a former judge and a pillar of local society, suffers from Alzheimer's disease. Her always elegant mother pretends that everything is fine. And her husband, who remained in New York, hardly gives any sign of himself. And yet Louise hopes to find some lost peace in these summer months. And not far from the old house by the sea, in a small, squalid apartment, Christie is trying to start a new life, having just lost her mother and learned the truth about her origins. In an old cozy house, which has always been a real family nest, tension gradually thickens, which can turn into drama or, on the contrary, untie all the knots, freeing from emotional burden.
"The House Where Summer Lives" is a cozy novel with an atmosphere of summer relaxation about family, about closeness, about how to take responsibility without turning it into a heavy burden. An ideal "vacation reading", which has a great story, and dramatic collisions, and emotions, and a summer mood, and light irony.
