Der Wind weht, wohin er will

The impressive new novel by a world bestselling author. For six years, Chiara and her family have lived in a house in the hills of Parma, Emilia Romagna. The place reflects the new, peaceful phase of life that followed a severe trauma. For the first time, the family has decided that after their shared Christmas celebration, everyone will spend the holidays as they see fit. The eldest daughter Alisha, who was adopted, is traveling with her fiancé, the second-born Ginevra is going to a ski resort with her friends, the youngest, Elia, is visiting a friend, and Chiara's husband Davide, a doctor, is hiking in the mountains with his old friends. Chiara, in her sixties, has decided to stay home. She feels the passage of time and senses that the moment has come to come to terms with herself by writing three long letters to Alisha, Ginevra, and Davide. A kind of spiritual testament. In her new novel, Susanna Tamaro returns to the successful formula of her world bestseller "Follow Your Heart" and has her protagonist write letters. In them, she addresses fundamental themes such as love, faith, and the support of a family.
