LOVE LETTERS FROM PARIS

Author of 'The Little Paris Bookshop' Nina George found this novel 'enchanting'. It is heart-breaking and touching, an international bestseller, translated from the German. Julien Azoulay is famous around the world for his bestselling romance novels, but last year his beloved wife Hélène died, leaving him to raise their young son alone. Since then, Julien seems to have lost his belief in love, and with it his ability to write. Luckily, Hélène was clever and before she died she made Julien promise to write her one letter for each year of her life. Now, in the famous cemetery in Paris, Julien stands with his painful first letter in his hand. Here, even though Julien wouldn't believe it, something wonderful is going to happen. Amongst the narrow, cobbled streets of Montmartre, Julien will discover the truth we all hope to find - that love is real, that miracles can happen and, most of all, that if you can be brave enough it's never too late to rediscover your dreams. The author studied romance, languages and literature at the Sorbonne, worked in a bookshop on the Rive Gauche in Paris, and in his love letter to the city believes in the healing power of the written word. A charming read for every bibliophile and Francophile, the book has beaucoup de charme. 260pp, paperback.
