Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - She has come the long way - train, bus, and her own two feet - to a whitewashed room above a cold northern sea, carrying the one thing she could not name and could not set down. Here, where the tide folds in and pulls back and the light moves all day on the water, she means to be still. To be all right. She is nearly sure of it.But the sea keeps its own counsel, and the past arrives unannounced - in the whistle of a kettle, a voice humming just below the true note, a hand once laid over her own.The Salt-Laced House is a luminous, tender novel of the rooms we flee to and the ones we carry with us - and of how a life, like a coastline, is shaped as much by what the water takes as by what it leaves.
