Nearly four hundred years later, when George Sand, her two children, and her lover Frederic Chopin arrive in the village, Blanca is still there: a spirited, funny, righteous ghost, she's been hanging around the monastery since her accidental death, spying on the monks and the townspeople and keeping track of her descendants. Blanca is enchanted the moment she sees George, and the magical novel unfolds as a story of deeply felt, unrequited longing, the impossible love of a teenage ghost for a woman who can't see her and doesnât know she exists. As George and Chopin, who wear their unconventionality, in George's case, literally on their sleeves, find themselves in deepening trouble with the provincial, 19th-century villagers, Blanca watches helplessly and reflects on the circumstances of her own death. 600 10 $a Sand, George, $d 1804-1876 $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Ghost stories. 650 0 $a Infatuation $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Haunted places $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Audiobooks. 650 0 $a Historical fiction. 650 0 $a Romance fiction. 700 1 $a Capistrano, Ferdelle, $e narrator. 941 $a 2 945 $a cdab 952 $l XAPE737 $d 20230204010653.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20220802023011.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=C3A97DB6122B11EDB028045E3CECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
