An international bestseller, Marie Sabine-Roger's heartwarming
novel is a touching and comic tale about the power of books. For
fans of The Uncommon Reader and The President's Hat. 'Brilliant,
uplifting' Le Messager 'Unique. The sort of book that makes you
want to hug the author to thank them for the happiness they have
given you' Focus Vif His mother called him a worthless halfwit
while his fellow drunks at the local bar ensure he's the butt of
all their jokes. He spends his days whittling wood, counting
pigeons and adding his own name to the bottom of the list on the
town war memorial. So how could Germain possibly understand what a
casual encounter on a park bench with eighty-five year old
Margueritte could mean? In this touchingly comic tale of an unusual
friendship, that first conversation opens a door into a world
Germain could never have imagined-the world of books and ideas-and
gives both him and Margueritte a chance at a happiness they thought
had passed them by.
