Krátky popis
The New York Times bestselling author of the The Paris Library
returns with a powerful, moving new novel based on the
extraordinary true story of Jessie Carson, the American librarian
determined to bring books to the children of war-torn France.'This
is hands down my book of 2024. A rich, glorious life-affirming ode
to the power of books and female solidarity. Simply unforgettable!'
Kate Thompson'A wonderful story about the power books have not only
to inspire, but also to rescue and restore. The characters are so
richly drawn... I absolutely loved it' Ruth Hogan'If you're a fan
of historical fiction with strong, inspirational women at its core,
do yourself a favor and pick up this book.' ? ? ? ? ? Real
Reader------------------------ Under what was left of the roof of
the ruined cottage, a girl with pigtails perched on a pile of
rubble, hunched over a book... 1918: As the Great War rages, Jessie
Carson takes a leave of absence from the New York Public Library to
work for the American Committee for Devastated France, a group of
women determined to rebuild devastated French communities just
miles from the front. Upon arrival, Jessie strives to establish
something that the French have never seen - children's libraries.
She turns ambulances into bookmobiles and trains the first French
female librarians. Then she disappears.1987: When NYPL librarian
and aspiring writer Wendy Peterson stumbles across a passing
reference to Jessie Carson in the archives, she becomes consumed
with learning her fate. In her obsession, she discovers that she
and the elusive librarian have more in common than their work at
New York's famed library, but she has no idea their paths will
converge in surprising ways across time.*Published under the title
