Das Buch lag ewig auf meinem SuB, weil ich immer gedacht habe, dass mich die Geschichte nicht interessieren wird. Ich wurde wieder mal eines besseren belehrt. Die Geschichte besteht komplett aus Briefen, aber diese sind so detailiert, dass man eigentlich nicht das Gefühl hat, irgendetwas zu verpassen. Mir hat auch die Zeit (1. + 2. Weltkrieg) gefallen, in der das Buch spielt. Insgesamt war die Story tragisch, herzzerreißend und spannend bis zum Ende.
Isle of Skye, in 1912: the young author Elspeth Dunn gets her first fan letter from the roguish American, called David Graham. The two immediately became fast pen friends, getting into deep conversations about their lives and the world in general. A while later, they're falling in love with each other. Isle of Skye, in 1940: Margaret, the daughter of Elspeth, finds a letter by accident. The intimated written letter was directed to a woman, called Sue, addressee of the writing is David Graham. Margaret is confused and starts to investigate. Who is Sue? Who is this guy lovingly called Davy? And why is a suitcase full of letters the most important thing for her mother Elspeth? The novel, which was composed as a serial of letters, shows the story about Elspeth and her Davy in two different time levels, during the period of the First World War and during the period of the Second World War. In the first time level you learn a lot about the development of the relationship between Elspeth and Davy. How they meet each other for the first time, how Davy goes to war and how Elspeth is worried about him. Also you learn about their lives and views. In the second time level we follow Margaret, the daughter of Elspeth, who aim to find out about her mother's previous life. But we also follow Elspeth again. After her daughter found her letter she makes up her mind: She wants to find her lost love, Davy, who she hasn't seen for so many years. I must confess the story isn’t the best one. And the end is rather clichéd and foreseeable. It has an effect on me the author Jessica Brockmole had no clue how to end the novel simply and logically (maybe individual), so she takes the first conclusion, that crosses her mind. Unfortunately that conclusion isn’t the most imaginative, creative and original one. But from the beginning Jessica Brockmole manages, in a very personal, sensitive, authentic way, to express credibility the feelings and beliefs of her characters. Also this novel has such a skillful and creative construction, that you get immediately fascinated. In addition, I have to say that I've listened to the audio book. And it was the best idea I've ever had! Every character has his own professional voice actor. It is astounding how the actors could turn this novel into reality just through their voices. It is also remarkable how the voices changes with the characters. Don't know how it is in english, but the german audio book alone is a minor masterpiece. All these positive points and all the many feels I had while reading it makes me forget the unoriginal ending. Even I'm not a romantic type I just love this book! :)
Hach - schöööööön! Geht tatsächlich ein bissle in die Richtung von "Deine Juliet". Und ich denke, dieses Buch gewinnt sehr in der Hörbuchversion - jedem Briefeschreiber ist ein eigener Sprecher gegönnt, jeder liest sehr gut und die einzelnen Zeitebenen werden durch ein typisches Musik-Intro getrennt - wirklich ein seeeehr schönes Buch! OK, schon ein bissle schmalzige Liebesgeschichte, aber insgesamt sehr in Ordnung und ich kanns wirklich empfehlen!
