Description

We choose, we are chosen… Happiness is when feelings are mutual. And if they aren’t? The story that forms the basis of the novella “A Faithful Husband,” which opens this book, is real. At one of my many meetings with readers, a woman approached me and handed over a parcel of letters. To be honest, I had forgotten about them. But when I remembered and started reading, I couldn’t stop. Those letters held so much passion, so much suffering, so much joy… I never knew the man who wrote those letters, and I had never met the woman they were addressed to. Yet it felt to me as if I could hear their voices, see their faces. And I perfectly understood the feelings of my heroine—who, after her beloved husband died, discovered those letters: someone else’s letters, containing precisely the words she had been waiting for her whole life…
