Titel: House Among the Trees
Auteur: Julia Glass
ISBN: 9781101873595
Conditie: Goed

From the National Book Awardwinning author of Three Junes, a richly imagined novel that begins just after the sudden death of world-renowned childrens book author Mort Lear, who leaves behind a wholly unexpected will, an idyllic country house, and difficult secrets about a childhood far darker than those of the beloved characters he created for young readers of all ages.

Left to grapple with the consequences of his final wishes are Tommy Daulair, his longtime live-in assistant; Merry Galarza, a museum curator betrayed by those wishes; and Nick Greene, a beguiling actor preparing to play Lear in a movie.

When Nick pays a visit to Lears home, he and Tommy confront what it means to be entrusted with the great writers legacy and reputation. Tommy realizes that despite his generous bequest, the man to whom she devoted decades of her life has left her with grave doubts about her past as well as her future. Vivid and gripping, filled with insight and humor, A House Among the Trees is an unforgettable story about friendship and love, artistic ambition, the perils of fame, and the sacrifices made by those who serve the demands of a creative genius.
