_________

How would you say goodbye to those you love most in the world?


it's time for Barbara to say a final farewell to her four daughters. But how can she find the words? And how can she leave them when they each have so much growing up to do?

There's commitment-phobic Lisa. Brittle, unhappily married Jennifer. Free-spirited traveller Amanda. And teenage Hannah, stumbling her way towards adulthood.

Barbara's answer is to write each daughter a letter, finally expressing the hopes, fears, dreams and secrets she couldn't always say.

These words will touch the girls in different - sometimes shocking - ways, unlocking emotions and passions to set them on their own journey of discovery through life.

Recenzii

Enchantingly clever. I cried, I laughed, I couldn't put it down
Her stories strike a genuine chord . . . an irresistible comfort read
Honest and beautifully written
It would be a hard heart indeed that remained unmoved . . . the tender feelings Noble engenders in her readers are to be cherished
Incredibly thought-provoking and poignant
This powerful tale packs an emotional punch
An emotional rollercoaster
A journey through emotionally-charged mother-daughter territory . . . it may just kickstart the practice of letter-writing again
Praise for Elizabeth Noble
Noble is the mistress of the tearjerking message of love
A wonderfully well-written book, full of emotion
Deliciously readable
Impossible to finish without tears streaming down your face
Witty, affectionate and unashamedly tear-jerking
Witty, pacy and immediately engaging
So fluid, the pages turn themselves
Tissues are essential. You'll ricochet between delicately watering eyes at the romance of it all and howling sobs at the unbearable tendernes
