For the first time in Russian - the most touching literary debut of recent years, fascinating, full of fragile beauty story about childhood and adulthies, about love and friendship in all imaginable forms, about quiet heroism in the face of the tragedy. Not in vain Sarah Winman already nicknamed "English John Irving", and this her novel was compared with the Hotel New Hampshire. Roman about the girl Ellie and her brother Joe, about their parents and her friend Jenny Penny, about the guests who come to the hotel, lost in the picturesque Wales Wilderness, and the family members of the family, about the limits of the necessary self-defense and the rabbit named God. The action of this unique family chronicle covers several decades, and under the curtain, Ellie recalls that he left: "About witnesses of my soul, about his children"s shadow, about those times when the dreams were small and executable. When candy was worth the penny, and God was a rabbit.
"Sarah Winman perfectly reproduces the fragile, magical texture of youth with all its secrets against the background of recognizable events of our general history.
Elle.
"Children, without unnecessary sentimentality, the voice of a storyteller, not a single fake note ... a great debut".
The Times
No retelling of the plot will repulse due to this amazingly wise and entertaining story about love and friendship in all imaginable forms, about the family, not closed by the biological framework, and about the loss, which is worse than death
