Five Quarters of the Orange
2 journalers for this copy...
Journal Entry 1 by lukutuoli from Tampere, Pirkanmaa / Birkaland Finland on Tuesday, February 5, 2008
From Amazon.com:
"When Framboise Simon returns to a small village on the banks of the Loire, the locals do not recognize her as the daughter of the infamous woman they hold responsible for a tragedy during the German occupation years ago. But the past and present are inextricably entwined, particularly in a scrapbook of recipes and memories that Framboise has inherited from her mother. And soon Framboise will realize that the journal also contains the key to the tragedy that indelibly marked that summer of her ninth year. . . . "
I've read the same book in Finnish and it's my favourite of the books of Joanne Harris.
EDIT 270208
I found this book on the wishlist of rootmartin, the book will travel to US as a part of the International Reverse Wishlist. Happy Reading!
