The Three Graces: ´The book everybody should be reading this summer´ Andrew O´Hagan

En savoir plus sur le livre

When Enzo shoots an illegal migrant from his bedroom, it sets off a chain of events that intertwines the lives of old and young, rich and poor, native and foreign. Enzo’s elderly neighbors—Ruth, Diana, and Marta—are three friends enjoying retirement in Tuscany. Ruth's grandson Olly is preparing for his wedding at her picturesque farmhouse, but his bride, Tania, appears more interested in vlogging than the ceremony. Meanwhile, Marta is gearing up for an annual music recital funded by a Russian oligarch hiding from Putin, even as her health declines. Her grandson, Xan, grapples with his resentment over social inequalities. Diana cares for her husband, Lord Evenlode, who suffers from dementia, reflecting on their tumultuous marriage. Over two weeks in May, these characters confront difficult choices as they navigate their pasts and the present’s challenges. Despite the beauty of the Tuscan spring, the complexities of modern life make it increasingly difficult to see what connects us rather than divides us. This engaging narrative is a profound exploration of the resilient human spirit, filled with humor and insight.
