'A beautifully written novel. Its characters are brought to life so
eloquently, and the blossoming of Miss Prim is so complete: she
learns the value in life and love that has been lost in our
modern-day hustle. An exquisite book and a joy to read' Deborah
Rodriguez, New York Times bestselling author of The Little Coffee
Shop of Kabul In this #1 international bestseller, a young woman
leaves everything behind to work as a librarian in a remote French
village: a delightful tale of love, literature, philosophy and the
search for happiness. Prudencia Prim is a young woman of
intelligence and achievement, with a deep knowledge of literature
and several letters after her name. But when she accepts the post
of private librarian in the village of San Ireneo de Arnois, she is
unprepared for what she encounters there. Her employer, a
book-loving intellectual, is dashing yet contrarian, always ready
with a critique of her cherished Jane Austen and Louisa May Alcott.
The neighbours, too, are capable of charm and eccentricity in equal
measure, determined as they are to preserve their singular little
community from the modern world outside. Prudencia hoped for
friendship in San Ireneo but she didn't suspect that she might find
love - nor that the course of her new life would run quite so
rocky, would offer challenge and heartache as well as joy,
discovery and fireside debate. The Awakening of Miss Prim is a
distinctive and delightfully entertaining tale of literature,
philosophy and the search for happiness.
