David Edwards, Chester | Too historical - (2/5) | I bought it because of the lovely film but he can be a very heavy author sometimes. |

When Pelagia, the local doctor's daughter, finds her letters to her fiancé go unanswered, Antonio and Pelagia draw close and the working of the eternal triangle seems inevitable. But can this fragile love survive as a war of bestial savagery gets closer and the lines are drawn between invader and defender?'Louis de Bernières is in the direct line that runs through Dickens and Evelyn Waugh...he has only to look into his world, one senses, for it to rush into reality, colours and touch and taste' Evening Standard | Release Date | 1995 | Author | Louis De Bernières | Format | Dimensions 13.3x20.0x2.9 cm 546 pages book | Publisher | Random House | Subject(s) | Fiction / General Fiction / Classics Fiction / Historical / General Fiction / Literary Fiction / Romance / Historical / General Fiction / War & Military |
