Sara Nisha Adams: The Twilight Garden, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Two feuding neighbors unite to resurrect a neglected city garden in this uplifting and quietly joyful novel by Sara Nisha Adams, author of the beloved The Reading List.

In a small pocket of London, between the houses of No. 77 and No. 79 Eastbourne Road, lies a neglected community garden. It was a beautiful thing once, a little oasis in a bustling city for neighbors by day and the local foxes at twilight. Now it's overgrown and neglected, an empty patch of greenery lost to time.

Once a sanctuary, the garden's gate is now firmly closed. And that's exactly how Winston at No. 79 likes it -- anything to avoid Bernice, who has moved in next door with her young son. Their houses may share the garden, but they're not exactly neighborly.

But then a mysterious parcel drops on Winston's doormat. It contains no note, only a bundle of photographs of the garden in bloom many years ago---vibrant with flowers, filled with people from every corner of the community. Is someone trying to tell them something? The seed of an idea is planted...

Somewhere out there, a secret gardener made a decades-old promise to keep the community's spirit alive. Now it's time for The Twilight Garden to come out of hibernation.
