Our Precious Wars |
A prize winning debut novel from French author Perrine Tripier. Isadora, now spending her final days in a nursing home recalls and reflects on her long life in a series of vignettes and flashbacks seen through the prism of the seasons and nature. Central is her beloved "House" which she never left, peopled by her extended family, but the stand out feature is the luminous, lyrical prose, each word placed with care as stitches in a tapestry.
