They were thick as thieves when they were young but have always been as different as can be. Agathe, the younger sister, is disorderly, chaotic, and fiery. Five years older, Emma has always been the more mature sister, the defender, the protector, the worrier. Their relationship as adults is scarred by a tragedy that transformed their happy, ordinary childhoods into something much more complex and challenging. For a long time, Emma hasn't wanted to be involved in Agathe's life. But then they must return together to the Basque Country, to the house of their adored grandmother, to empty out her home and in the process to reconcile, to remember, and to pour out what is in their hearts. The story alternates between Agathe and Emma's childhood and their present day, with everything in between, and readers see them as young girls, teenagers, young women, mothers, wives, partners, individuals, sisters. This is a story that encompasses whole lives, complex lives, women's lives, asking all the while how the scars of the past can be healed and what, in the end, is a good life." -- $c Amazon. 650 0 $a Sisters $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Reconciliation $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Pays Basque (France) $v Fiction. 700 1 $a Serle, Hildegarde, $e translator. 941 $a 3 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20240611032740.0 952 $l GOPG641 $d 20240611031239.0 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20240604014525.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=94F73B30223B11EF96E545AA58ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b C@VInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
