4Una gran historia de amor ambientada en la Segunda Guerra Mundial de Kristin Hannah, la autora de El Ruiseñor.

Una ciudad sitiada. Una madre. Dos hijas. Y un secreto que cambiará sus vidas para siempre.URSS, 1941. Leningrado es una ciudad sitiada, aislada de toda posibilidad de ayuda por la guerra y la nieve que entierra los edificios con su blancura. Pero en Leningrado también hay mujeres sumidas en la desesperación, capaces de cualquier cosa para salvar a sus hijos y a sí mismas de un final trágico.Estados Unidos, 2000. La pérdida y los años han causado estragos en Anya Whitson. Finalmente ha conseguido contactar con sus hijas, Nina y Meredith. Y con una voz vacilante e insegura, empieza a entretejer la historia de una bella y joven rusa que vivió en Leningrado hace mucho tiempo...

En una cruzada en busca de la verdad oculta tras la historia, las dos hermanas se enfrentarán a un secreto que hará tambalear los cimientos de su familia y cambiará para siempre la imagen de quiénes creían ser.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONMesmerizing from the first page to the last, Winter Garden is one woman's sweeping, heartbreaking story of love, loss, and redemption. At once an epic love story set in World War II Russia and an intimate portrait of contemporary mothers and daughters poised at the crossroads of their lives, it explores the heartbreak of war, the cost of survival and the ultimate triumph of the human spirit. It is a novel that will haunt the reader long after the last page is turned.1941. Leningrad, a once magical city besieged by war, cut off from aid, buried in snow. A city full of women desperate to save their children and themselves...2000. Loss and old age have taken a terrible toll on Anya Whitson. At last, she will reach out to her estranged daughters. In a halting, uncertain voice, she begins to weave a fable about a beautiful Russian girl who lived in Leningrad a lifetime ago...Nina and Meredith sit spellbound at their mother's bedside, listening to a story that spans more than sixty years and moves from the terrors of war-torn Leningrad under siege to modern-day Alaska.In a quest to uncover the truth behind the story, Nina and Meredith discover a secret so shocking, so impossible to believe, it shakes the foundation of their family and changes who they believe they are."Another powerful story of family love, and strong women...a fascinating story that weaves fairy tales into reality, fairy tales that don't always have the expected endings."?The Herald-News"...a gripping read. Hannah's audience will find plenty to discuss in this enthralling entry."?Booklist
