Tajne sretnoga života

Tajne sretnoga života

Susan Meissner

With vivid storytelling and lovely prose, Meissner weaves an interesting story, told from three perspectives, in which World War II and the present day intertwine.

In the midst of war, a young woman stands at a crossroads. What she has done will haunt her for the rest of her life. But a strange twist of fate proves that love and hope never die. Oxford, England. Young history student Kendra Van Zant arrives at a picturesque country house to interview ninety-two-year-old Isabel McFarland, one of the few living witnesses to the London Blitz. What Kendra learns from Isabel is both a gift and a burden that will test all her beliefs. England in the 1940s. Fearing German air raids on London after the fall of France, a mass evacuation of about a million city children to the countryside begins. Fifteen-year-old Emmy Downtree and her younger sister Julia are taken in to a beautiful country house in the Cotswolds. But Emmy's burning desire to return to the city and pursue a career as a wedding dress designer conflicts with her sense of duty to her sister Julia, who enjoys their time in the countryside. Just as the girls sneak into the city, the horrific bombing of London begins, and the sisters are suddenly separated, and the course of their lives is irrevocably changed. Emmy cannot forgive herself...
