The Stillness of Winter

Résumé du livre

A different kind of Love Story. The Stillness of Winter is the story of Samuel who returns home to discover that the love of his life had taken herself out of the equation they had strived to become, leaving only a hastily scribbled note. It is the story of Marlys who manages Samuel through the days and months after his abandonment and who for her own reasons keeps him emotionally afloat when his own personal demons threaten to drag him desperately into darkness. It is the story of Julia, who returns intending to provide closure, but instead presents Samuel with ideas and concepts about love that he struggles to understand. The Stillness of Winter is a love story that grabs you by the heartstrings and tugs on them until you give in to the randomness that is learning to love someone you thought you knew better than yourself. Its about keeping secrets that are better shared when love is new out of fear, and friendship that is there to keep those dark at bay when it is threatened.
