One night in August
14.99 €
Fifteen years after the publication of her novel "Island," Victoria Hislop returns to its characters and resurrects a time that has become a distant memory. In the late 1950s, a cure for leprosy was discovered, and the leper colony on the Greek island of Spinalonga off the coast of Crete closed. Victory over the terrible disease meant the end of a separation that had recently seemed eternal; the cured people were finally able to embrace their loved ones. This happened on August 25, 1957. But in the midst of the celebration, gunshots suddenly rang out... A new grief befell the Cretans and changed the destinies of many. Some were robbed of their freedom, others were granted it along with the right to a difficult choice: to hate or to forgive. For the first time in Russian!
