Description:
Under the falling snow that covers the streets bathed in silence, John and Helena, each at opposite ends of the city, walk towards each other only to find themselves in the middle. This blind crossing marks the beginning of a love story that will unfold across time, wars, and borders. From the chalk cliffs of Yorkshire to the battlefields of France, from Estonia to Paris, embraces are made and unmade with the same movement similar to that of the tides. In this fresco of muted beauty, where we meet Marie Curie and the pioneers of photography, the great Anne Michaels intertwines dreams and exiles on this thin line that separates memory from oblivion, the dead from the living. With an incandescent pen, she explores the persistence of desire and reveals the secrets of light and the dark chambers of the heart."--Publisher's website
