Nina George

Das schonste Buch des Jahres kommt von Nina George: die Fortsetzung des Weltbestsellers "Das Lavendelzimmer"!Vier Jahre sind vergangen, seit der Buchhandler Jean Perdu sein Bucherschiff, die "Pharmacie Litteraire" verlie, und den Aufbruch in eine neue Liebe mit der Bildhauerin Catherine in der Provence wagte. Doch die in einer Zeitkapsel aufbewahrte letzte Bitte des Schriftstellers Jose Saramago an Monsieur Perdu lockt ihn zuruck, in das Herz seiner Leidenschaft: Bucher und Menschen zusammen zu bringen, und fur jede Seelen-Maladie die wirksamste Lekture zu empfehlen. Auf der gemeinsamen Reise mit Max Jordan uber die Kanale Frankreichs nach Paris wird das Bucherschiff des Monsieur Perdu bald zu einer Arche, auf der sich Menschen, Kinder, Tiere - und Bucher! - begegnen, die einander fur immer verandern. Und das groe Abenteuer Leben halt fur jeden von ihnen einen zweiten Anfang bereit - auch fur Monsieur Perdu...

From the New York Times and internationally bestselling author of The Little Paris Bookshop, comes a delightful, offbeat, charming and bittersweet tale about the distance one man will travel for the sake of love and friendship. Henri is about to meet his teenage son, Sam, for the first time. But as Henri crosses Hammersmith Bridge, an accident happens. Sam reads about it in the newspaper - his father is a hero, now in a coma in hospital. So their first meeting takes place there, alongside the hospital's neurologist, whom the staff name God and is the first person to treat Sam as an equal in intelligence. And that's because Sam, due to a condition called synaesthesia, can sense things the doctors can't - he can see the colours of his father's thoughts and dreams, and many relationships build from this. This beautiful novel is warm, wise, wry look at what love means. It's about fathers and sons, friendship and family, life, death and making peace with the past in order to find a future.

His memories and his love have been gathering dust - until now. The arrival of an enigmatic new neighbour in his eccentric apartment building on Rue Montagnard inspires Jean to unlock his heart, unmoor the floating bookshop and set off for Provence, in search of the past and his beloved.

Un viaje fascinante. Una conmovedora fábula sobre el amor y la felicidad. Una segunda oportunidad esperando al final del camino.Jean Perdu es dueño de un negocio tan especial como extraordinario: La farmacia literaria, una libreria instalada en un barco en el Sena. En vez de dispensar medicamentos, receta libros como remedio a las aflicciones del alma de sus clientes.Monsieur Perdu sabe muy bien como aliviar el dolor ajeno, pero jamas ha sido capaz de ayudarse a si mismo. Han pasado mas de veinte años desde que termino su maravilloso idilio con una mujer casada, y todavia no ha logrado recomponer su corazon. Su gris existencia cambia el dia en que conoce a su nueva vecina, Catherine, que tambien ha sido abandonada. Ella es la unica persona que podria comprender su dolor, por eso decide confesarle un secreto que le atormenta: Manon le envio una ultima carta que nunca leyo por despecho. Catherine le insta a abrirla ahora...Jean nunca podria haber imaginado su contenido. Ahora debera tomar una decision: seguir anestesiado con una vida que ya conoce y con la que se siente comodo, aunque no sea especialmente feliz, o aventurarse a lo desconocido y redescubrir lo bueno que tiene la vida.La critica ha dicho...Una farmacia literaria con libros como medicinas es una idea original y sabia.
