Description

In a small, sunlit corner of France, a young girl’s life is shaped by the rhythms of family, faith, and the stories people tell to make sense of loss. When a mysterious, tender bond forms around Father Francis, the community’s secrets begin to surface—alongside the bittersweet truths of growing up and belonging. Blending lyrical storytelling with wry humor, this novel explores love, grief, and the ways memory can both heal and haunt. Joanne Harris’s distinctive voice—warm, observant, and richly atmospheric—turns everyday moments into something luminous and unforgettable.
