Description
Julia Ames finally feels that she has her life firmly under control. After a youth filled with upheaval and emotional turmoil, she has reached an apparently calm, settled middle age. At fifty-seven, she believes the worst is behind her. Then unexpected things begin to enter her life: a surprising announcement from her son, the estrangement of her headstrong teenage daughter and, above all, the return of a past that is as seductive as it is dangerous. It takes very little for Julia to find herself once again on the edge where she has already stood. This penetrating and sensitive portrait captures life in all its untidiness, portraying motherhood without embellishment, the fragility of relationships between generations and the unpredictable chains of cause and effect that shape our destinies. It is a story about how we change—and how the past never entirely lets us go. The novel is in Czech.
