<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>This masterful and compassionate novel is split into a series of interlinked stories that tell the tale of Hannah Pearl. As Hannah's memory of the present begins to fade, she increasingly inhabits the world of her ardent and frightened youth in war-torn France and England, while her memories of life in America with her daughter and granddaughters have almost been erased. Throughout the book each character must negotiate the fraught intricacies of memory, geography, and motherhood. The reader will discover and illuminate, with miraculous effect, all the pieces of this intelligent and dream-like puzzle.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Harriet Scott Chessman</b> is a teacher and a librettist.
