Two Lives- Wm. Trevor

Very Good condition paperback.
Evocative and haunting, Trevor writes like an angel, but is determined to wring your heart.
In Reading Turgenev an Irish country girl is trapped in a loveless marriage with an older man, but finds release through secret meetings with a man who shares her passion for Russian novels.

My House in Umbria tells of Emily Delahunty, a writer of romantic novels, who helps the survivors of a bomb attack on a train to convalesce, inventing colourful pasts for her patients.

Two novels, two women who retreat further into the realm of the imagination until the boundaries between what is real and what is not become blurred...

Marvellous, superb. As rich and moving as anything I have read in years. When I reached the end... I wanted to start right again at the beginning
