Product Information

Fresh Water for Flowers is a spellbinding piece of writing with a glorious narrative that follows an eclectic bunch of people, all caught up in the contradictory nature of life and love. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. In the meantime we are getting to know Violette’s story, including about her marriage and her first job as a level-crossing keeper, raising and lowering the barriers as trains pass. Every chapter begins with what I saw as epigraphs, but which are referred to in the discussion questions at the end of the novel as “epitaphs,” which surprised me and then made perfect sense, even though many of them are not quite the kind of thing you’d actually carve on a tombstone.

Sasha comes across as a person with an almost supernatural ability to heal others, in body and in spirit.Eloquent, fluctuant, picturesque, poetic descriptive writing that appeals to your senses of sound, smell and taste.

Violette again does all the work while Philippe plays games, rides his bike, and philanders - but Violette is content with her home and vegetable garden. Per certi versi l'ho trovato somigliante alle "Ninfee Nere" di Bussi, forse proprio per la struttura e le modalità in cui è costruito. But] I’m sure plenty of bastards lie here…And anyhow, who hasn’t been a bastard at least once in their life?Jedna z tych zwykłych-niezwykłych historii, które ni stąd, ni zowąd dotykają człowieka do samej głębi.
