Description
"The Winter Garden” is a captivating and heartbreakingly beautiful novel by bestseller author Kristin Hannah, “The Nightingale.”
Sisters Meredith and Nina Winston are completely different from each other. One of them devoted her life to children and caring for their family apple orchard; the other followed her dream and became a famous photojournalist, traveling all over the world. But when their beloved father falls gravely ill, Meredith and Nina reunite at their parents’ home. Their mother, with Russian roots—Anya—has always been cold and disapproving, even now offering her daughters no sympathy. As children, the only connection between them was a Russian fairy tale that Anya sometimes told the girls at bedtime. On his deathbed, their father asks the sisters to listen to the old fairy tale one last time—until the very end. That’s how an unexpected journey into Anya’s past begins: a war-torn, besieged Leningrad. Meredith and Nina will have to learn the heartbreaking story of their mother’s life, full of terrible secrets that will shake them to the core and forever change how they see themselves and their family.
