I'd rate this the best Catherine Cookson novel, and I've read roughly 50 of hers. It's a bit out of pattern for her in that it's not a love-across-class generational saga. Instead, it's a compassionate, human story of abuse and redemption. Beautiful, poignant story. ( ) This book starts when a dishevelled woman turns up at a solicitor's and is nearly turned away. However it soon become clear that she has been missing for 26 years so where has she been. We are then taken back 26 years and learn her story and how destitute and alone she was taken in by Bella who loved her as a mother along with her boys. This is a beautiful if sad story told with great pathos and although gritty and hard is also full of hope and fun. How the family's hardships are dealt with is told without feeling unreal and forced. Unusually for Catherine Cook on the book is set in London rather than North East England and is a fitting end to her literary career aucune critique | ajouter une critique
