The Fisherman's Sketchbook
This original title is included with Classics Plus.
Sicily, 1962. In a lemon grove above the fishing village of Marzamemi, eighteen-year-old Rosa Calì meets Turi, a barefoot young fisherman who draws everything he loves in a battered leather sketchbook. Their summer love is torn apart by a family debt, an arranged marriage and a lie that lasts forty years. In 2006, a widowed Rosa returns to the village with a tin box of letters, and her granddaughter Elena helps her follow the trail back to the boy with the sketchbook. A tender, sweeping love story in the tradition of the great romantic novels. Calm and unhurried, perfect for bedtime.
