Ferryman and His Wife
Descripción del producto
'A heartfelt reckoning of a human life' Lisa Ridzén, bestselling author of When the Cranes Fly South
How would you spend your last day? And whom would you spend it with?
Ferryman Nils Vik chooses to head out onto the fjord, as he has for many years. Today, the 18th of November, his trip is different. As his trusty boat reaches the sea, a lifetime of passengers join him from beyond the grave, among them his rescue dog, the American photographer he thought of as his friend and young Jon Anderson, whose funeral Nils attended. But Nils is truly waiting for just one passenger: his beloved wife Marta, whose absence has marked each day since her passing. Approaching the end of his journey, his expectation grows - will he be reunited with her too?
Timeless and heartbreaking, The Ferryman and His Wife is a contemplative celebration of life, for readers of Fredrik Backman, Elizabeth Strout and Sarah Winman.
