A unputdownable new novel from the Sunday Times bestselling author of A Place for Us and The Butterfly Summer
Klappentext zu „The Wildflowers “
'I adored The Wildflowers. A sweeping, epic, moving read' MARIAN KEYES
RICHARD AND JUDY SUMMER BOOK CLUB PICK 2018
Turn the page and find yourself in a Dorset beach house, the sun in your eyes and the sand between your toes. This is the home of Tony and Althea Wilde - the Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor of their generation and with a marriage every bit as stormy. A gorgeous, epic tale of tangled family secrets and lies . . .
'A wonderful, engrossing novel, full of the most vivid characters and a truly memorable setting. A triumph' SOPHIE KINSELLA
'She reels you in and then you're hooked, right to the last page' PATRICIA SCANLAN
'Atmospheric and altogether wonderful' LESLEY PEARCE
'I love it on so many levels, the immense feeling of place, the slow, irresistible sense of being drawn deep into the family and its story, and the strange hovering of menace somewhere in the idyll. Wonderful' PENNY VINCENZI
'Her characters are finely drawn and as the story hops back and forth from the Second World War to the present day, the reader becomes deeply immersed in this charismatic family's fortunes. The result is that rare and lovely thing, an all-engaging and all-consuming drama' DAILY MAIL
_________________
Tony and Althea Wilde. Glamorous, argumentative . . . adulterous to the core.
They were my parents, actors known by everyone. They gave our lives love and colour in a house by the sea - the house that sheltered my orphaned father when he was a boy.
But the summer Mads arrived changed everything. She too had been abandoned and my father understood why. We Wildflowers took her in.
My father was my hero, he gave us a golden childhood, but the past was always going to catch up with him ... it comes for us all, sooner or later.
This is my story. I am Cordelia Wilde. A singer without a voice. A daughter without a father. Let me take you inside.
