In a Sardinian village, at the age of six, Maria becomes the soul-child of the unmarried widow Bonaria Urrai, a seamstress with a secret. Their relationship had echoes of the grandmother/daughter in The Summer Book.
I need to read this (in yhe original).
The writing is superb - she throws in these paragraphs that contain 800pg sagas without ever losing the pace of the main story.
