'She's such a skilful storyteller who vividly dramatises our lives
with wit, wisdom and compassion' Bernardine Evaristo When Enzo
shoots an illegal migrant from his bedroom one night, it triggers a
series of events that embroil old and young, rich and poor, native
and foreign. His elderly neighbours Ruth, Diana and Marta are three
friends who have retired to Tuscany. Ruth's favourite grandson Olly
is about to get married from her idyllic hillside farmhouse;
however, the bride, Tania, seems curiously unengaged by anything
but vlogging as a social media influencer. Marta, preparing to give
the annual music recital sponsored by a Russian oligarch in hiding
from Putin, is increasingly unwell, and her grandson, Xan, is full
of resentment at the inequalities he encounters. nursing her
husband, Lord Evenlode, who is living with dementia, and looking
back over a long and troubled marriage. Over two weeks in May, all
these characters will face challenging choices as they grapple with
their own past and with present dangers. For although the Tuscan
spring looks as ravishing as a Renaissance painting, the realities
of modern life make it harder and harder to believe that there is
more that unites us than what keeps us apart. Brilliant,
enthralling, funny and generous, this is an exploration of the
indomitable human heart.
