Beschreibung
Lilia is eighty-one. She has outlived three husbands, raised five children and seen the birth of seventeen grandchildren. Now she has turned her attention to a little book just published: the diary of Roland Bouley, with whom she once had a fleeting affair. Lilia begins to annotate the diary with her own, rather different version of events and reveals to us the surprising secrets of her own life. Richly expansive and deeply moving, an intimate novel of secret lives.
