A cozy novel about a former actress and the young man writing her biography, from the bestselling author of "Book Delivery Service." A philosophical parable about self-discovery, growing up, and the meaning of life. A story that begins with a single book, reserved for a spot in a library filled to capacity.
Here, the air smells of the sea, the cries of seagulls awaken the sleepy silence of a seaside village, and an old woman sits at the bus stop, not going anywhere. Jonas, in fact, has no reason to rush either—he dropped out of school, is searching for himself, and plans to help others by writing their life stories.
But the job promises to be challenging: his first client, the eccentric Stella Dor, a former film star, wants her biography to be flawless—full of only the right decisions and happy moments. But is that the only thing that makes life unforgettable? Or perhaps the true meaning of life lies in the courage to be honest with oneself and the world? Jonas must not only record someone else's story but also grow up himself.
This book is a wise, poetic story about the power of memory, the priceless gift of friendship, and the art of appreciating every sunrise.
