Omschrijving:
*A Cosmopolitan Best Book of Summer * One of BuzzFeeds Most Anticipated LGBTQ+ Books* An exquisite
too lovely to bear (The New York Times Book Review) debut novel from an award-winning writer: a playful and daring tale about a teenage ghost who falls in love with the writer George Sand. In 1473, fourteen-year-old Blanca dies in a hilltop monastery in Mallorca. Nearly four hundred years later, when George Sand, her two children, and her lover Frederic Chopin arrive in the village, Blanca is still there: a spirited, funny, righteous ghost, shes been hanging around the monastery since her accidental death, spying on the monks and the townspeople and keeping track of her descendants. Blanca is enchanted the moment she sees George, and the magical novel unfolds as a story of deeply felt, unrequited longinga teenage ghost pining for a woman who cant see her and doesnt know she exists. As George and Chopin, who wear their unconventionality, in Georges case, literally on their sleeves, find themselves in deepening trouble with the provincial, 19th-century villagers, Blanca watches helplessly and reflects on the circumstances of her own death (which involved an ill-advised love affair with a monk-in-training). Charming, original, and emotionally moving, this deeply wild debut follows the unconventional love triangle ( Cosmopolitan) between George, Chopin, and Blancaa gorgeous and surprising exploration of artistry, desire, and life after death.
