Anna Bassan Levi Orden de los libros (cronológico)

"Josie is a widow living in a remote old house outside an Irish village, possessed by memories of her troubled marriage and one clandestine love affair. Her solitude is violated by the arrival of an escaped IRA terrorist, McGreevy, a bloody crusader for a united Ireland, who has chosen her beautiful home for sanctuary as he plans a new action. Their coexistence--a hostile standoff at first between the yearnings of an elderly woman whose youthful joy was broken and the intransigent idealism of her captor--evolves into something far more ambiguous."-- Back cover

At the end of Cheri the young Cheri left his aging mistress Lea on the eve of his marriage. As Cheri and Lea confront each other, and the changes a decade has wrought on their lives and their looks, Colette displays the incredible sensitivity and insight for which she is justly famous. schovat popis
