A slim novel compared to most of Pilcher’s work, this unconventional story is reminiscent of one of the character’s journeys in The Shell Seekers. Selina is about to get married when she sees a photo on a book dust jacket that she thinks might be of her father, who she’s never met. She travels to a small island and her life is turned upside down. Not nearly as good as her other works, but quick enough that you don’t expect the same depth. ( ) Tras abandonar impulsivamente a su novio en Londres, Selina Bruce se ha recluido en una pequeña isla de la costa española. La incierta búsqueda de su padre, a quien nunca conoció, la conduce a una serie de descubrimientos sobre su persona y sobre el apuesto abogado con el que había planeado casarse. Este cambio trascendental se debe a George, que no solo parece haber encontrado la clave del pasado de Selina, sino también la de su corazón. As a child, whenever Selina Bruce would ask about her late father, the grandmother who raised her would always quickly change the subject. Then, the chance discovery of a photograph gave Selina hope that her father was still alive. It also turned her world on its axis. For the first time in her life, Selina didn't know what tomorrow would bring. She leaves her lawyer fiance behind in London and impulsively flies alone to San Antonio - a tiny island off the coast of Spain - brimming with the hope that she will finally meet the father she's never known. What she discovered instead was an unexpected truth about herself and the man she planned to marry. For exotic San Antonio offered Selina more than a lush paradise and glorious days spent under the penetrating brilliance of the noonday sun. It offered her the mysterious George Dyer, a writer who would help her solve the mystery of her past...and who might just hold the key to her future happiness. I really enjoyed reading this book. The story was gentle and sweet, and not too earth-shatteringly serious. In my opinion, Rosamunde Pilcher has always been a good story-teller; and the plots of her stories have always interested me. I must say though, that this book seemed slightly different from most of Ms. Pilcher's other works - somehow lighter and frothier than I was expecting. I give Sleeping Tiger by Rosamunde Pilcher an A+! inga recensioner | lägg till en recension
