The Bookshop of the Broken Hearted

by Robert Hillman
The Bookshop of the Broken Hearted
The Bookshop of the Broken Hearted

Broken hearts mended through love and books.

"The Bookshop Of The Broken-Hearted" is a poignant love story about two individuals finding solace in each other's company through their shared passion for books. It also touches upon the sensitive topic of the Holocaust, making it an emotionally rich read that is very well-written. The story is a perfect fit for those who are looking for a heartwarming, intimate narrative that leaves a lasting impression.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

Tom Hope doesn't chase rainbows. He does his best on the farm - he milks the cows, harvests the apples, looks after the sheep - but Tom's been lonely since his wife Trudy left, taking little Peter with her to go join the holy rollers. Enter Hannah Babel, a quixotic small-town bookseller: the second Jew—and the most vivid person—Tom has ever met. When she asks him to move in and help her build Australia's most beautiful bookshop, Tom dares to believe they could make each other happy. But it is 1968: twenty-four years since Hannah and her own little boy arrived at Auschwitz. Tom Hope is taking on a battle with heartbreak he can barely even begin to imagine.
